If you're responding to Ilias Lazaridis's comment, you should be aware that he appears to be a troll. His post set off all my "trolling post, ignore" sensors, plus I've seen him before. (Here, several months ago, if I recall correctly). Incidentally, there used to be a Wikipedia article on him, which was recently deleted. But you can still see it via Google's cache, at: http://72.14.221.104/search?q=cache:HnC3ass1Y9YJ:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilias_Lazaridis+ilias+lazaridis&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1 I wasn't going to say anything unless someone responded to him, but in the interests of pro-actively heading off a possible flamewar: Please Don't Feed The Trolls. :-) -- Robin Munn [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG key 0x4543D577 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
