No doubt. Never suggested otherwise - especially since I can't even identify the audience that the request reached. This was for my own amusement and entertainment-value only. I got what I wanted out of it, and I thank anyone who took the time to throw a nickel in the slot. Mark ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

I'm going based off advocacy numbers.
