You open my post you see it's some code. No questions. You move on. But no, you NEED to impart advice where not has been solicited. If I had added "Please ignore" to the title of my posts, I would still be writing this to you, and other smartasses. I've dealt with people like you in newsgroups for a long time, you just think you have a mortgage here and there is no pie that does not deserve your finger. In the real world we call you: fishwife. Will you ignore me, please? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
