Given that the original poster's question did not include the word "pin" in any form, and "pinning" did not enter the discussion until Christian Seiler's first response, I think that this _is_ what the Subject line is referring to. I suspect the "pining"/"pinning" parallel here is in fact pure coincidence. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
