I've been reading this agog - really, how old are we here? But I have to say that Bob's signature was absolutely spot on. It even caught me out until I realised its purpose. Case in point. I have to wonder how this conversation will look in the various archives when a future PHP coder goes looking for a nice, friendly place to seek knowledge and guidance. PS: I also have to wonder how the attitude of "I don't like that rule, so I didn't follow it" (not an exact quote) will go over when presented to a police officer?
