Let's not pollute this thread with that though ... :-) I agree that the revert was the right thing to do, but from what I saw when I briefly glimpsed at part of the thread during my vacation (and then deciding I didn't want to deal with it then) a lot has been said in the thread that is completely wrong. I may not care enough to correct it though. johannes
