LOL. True. But it's not in a place that very many people will see. It needs to be posted on the site somewhere if it's going to be seen. Whether it's worth posting on a web page or not, I don't know (particularly since many trolls will just always be trolls), but if we actually want that sort of information to be readily available, then a single post in the Phobos list certainly doesn't cut it. It is interesting to see though. - Jonathan M Davis _______________________________________________ phobos mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/phobos
