I admit, I was a little dissappointed by the other response, which basically said, "that's a bad idea." If he really thought it was a bad idea, I wish he would have taken the time to say why. I listed the reasons I thought it was a good idea point by point. It would have been quite easy to refute me if he had a good argument. Regards, _. --Steve ._||__ DISCLAIMER: All opinions are my own.
