This is a pointless post, a bit like a log.

Sometimes I think rephlex@dircon goes directly to the Delphic Oracle. Is this post self-referential, or are you replying to a post that happened some time ago? If the latter is the case, it is customary to include a part of the post to which you're responding, so as to clue in the people reading what the f*ck you're on about. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Check the lame home page http://soli.inav.net/~kent/ Kent Williams kent@inav.net CADSI 2651 Crosspark Road Coralville IA 52241 (319) 338 6053 (home) (319) 626 6700 x 219 (work) (319) 626 3489 (fax)
