Tom Sullivan I'm guessing this is probably not a good forum for this to turn into a debate, so I'll just note without detail that I don't think Morris was confused at all... and I don't think the intentionality of the pattern or its essential-ness to the model from which it is derived is relevant. I can understand how you see things differently, though! c -- Chris Lott <ch...@chrislott.org>
