https://xkcd.com/1457/ XKCD is not a work of fiction. It is, at best, a slight exaggeration of reality. My Dad used to reboot his computer before burning a DVD, because it seemed to create less failed burns. No explanation was ever found. (He doesn't make DVD backups any more, so the issue has been dodged.) ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
