Pirates deserve all they get. > While I agree that Pirates deserve to be squashed, I can hardly agree with you that I or some other user won't get a password wrong three times in a row - I've managed it several times, like when I'm tired and my fingers are a little fumbly, etc. As to the assertion: >What do you want me to do?

There are several games that push the OS aside, run to their heart's content, and then exit cleanly to the workbench. A game that requires a reboot in order to exit it irks me to no end. -- Kevin -- Kevin Klop {uunet|rutgers|amiga}!cbmvax!kevin Commodore-Amiga, Inc. ``Be excellent to each other.'' - Bill and Ted's most excellent adventure Disclaimer: _I_ don't know what I said, much less my employer.
