Use a real Usenet client, and you can make it skip a thread. Like I said, I am not interested in a(n OT) pissing contest, but when people make silly statements like Edward did, I think its a good thing to point out that import is *not* encouraged by the Perl community. It has been used (abused IMO) a lot in the past, and yes, those modules are still around. But in general OO is perferred, except in those cases that import extends the language with for example constructs like try / catch or case etc. -- John MexIT: http://johnbokma.com/mexit/ personal page: http://johnbokma.com/ Experienced programmer available: http://castleamber.com/ Happy Customers: http://castleamber.com/testimonials.html -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
