The last sentence is puzzling. Many or most things that are simulated involve timings. Quite often they are sensitive to their network conditions. Usually the sensitivity is configurable, so they can be highly sensitive if you like. -- Jim Dixon [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel +44 117 982 0786 mobile +44 797 373 7881 _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
