Well, sure. If you're dealing with empty sets, then you should know what you're getting yourself into if you're asking about set intersections. If you don't, then an .intersects method isn't going to help you out of your conundrum of not understanding how the null set relates to intersections. -- Erik Max Francis && [EMAIL PROTECTED] && http://www.alcyone.com/max/ San Jose, CA, USA && 37 20 N 121 53 W && AIM, Y!M erikmaxfrancis Perfect girl / She was never me -- Lamya -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
