Nope. I prefer something like: I can do it my way. It'll cost you $1 and I can do it in 15 minutes. I can do it your way. It'll cost you $1000, will take a week and it still won't work the way you want. What should I do? I usually get to do what I want to do... -TPP ----------------------------------------- This email may contain confidential and privileged material for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
