Actually you're making a mistake there: Maybe 100 people took a look at Wook's book, but a lot more than 100 people were pissed off at yet another Commercial post. Next time use the "announce" NG. Always ask youself...so if 2 billion people did what I'm about to do, will it make a big stink? Most times the answer is: a huge stink. Cheers. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
