Thank you, Chris. I was afraid of this could start a flame war. This is why I asked to reply in specific pattern. Many of us don't like any war. No body wins/looses in a flamewar. It would always be the power we have causes the problems. Consider two cases, you have gun or joystick in your hand. You can now think of what you can do with these things. This is why I gave you the joystick in your hand. I am posting this second time through google groups. I don't know whether my previous post was lost or I didn't post at all. I couldn't see it in google groups. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
