(Newsgroup posting tends to be rather slower than email.) Looks like the keyword is getting more and more to the point. I did see the news followup well after the mail reply, and so my appologies to Mark for suggesting that his statement wrt assumptions was made after he had a chance to see the mail I sent him. Now, before we have to rename c.s.h into alt.assumption, lets get back to the FUN stuff that goes on here. & remember, I did say CAN & not WILL corrupt. -JimC -- James H.
