When all else fails, it's time for an ad hominem attack. Kevin, we could just as well say that all rapes are committed by men, and therefore you should be locked up. Bill's explanation makes a lot of sense, and I'm happy there's at least one lawyer on our side. It takes one to fight one, and unfortunately most of us know more about how things should work than about what's actually enshrined in law. Multiple conflicting O2 standards create enough grief even if you're just honestly trying to do what's right and sensible, let alone if you ever get sued as a result of a problem. -- Anthony DeBoer http://www.onramp.ca/~adb/ adb@he*.re*.or* (here) adb@ge*.co* (work) #include "std.disclaimer" -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
