They don't have to care at all. But if they don't care about how curves are usually organized, maybe they are better of not using curves to bring a message across, since it risks to bring the wrong message to those who are familiar with curves. -- Antoon Pardon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
