And no need to invent precise terms for every different failure mode. Or, how I now and then deal with discussions where special words are used: Person: I think FOO is the best there is! Me: Can you say the same sentence again, without the use of the word "FOO"? Person: Hmm....[some good explanation which makes me understand what the person meant with the term FOO in *this* context of *this* discussion] I.e. trying to compile explanatory text into single words is in most cases impossible. The question is how useful it is? Sometimes maybe non-precise language is needed to ensure people use more words. "Broadband" anyone? Patrik
