Yep, I totally missed that point - good catch.

Working on the assumption it's true, that would indeed be a very silly 
thing for a person to say, especially if they were a tech :/ It'd bother 
me too.

I'm still curious about how long ago it was; many changes have taken 
place that I'm confident will eliminate anything like that ever 
happening again (what'd you expect me to say? :) Regardless, I'll pass 
the info on, that kinda thing is always good to know.

If I'm annoying anyone with off-topic blabber, please let me know and 
I'd be happy to take it off-list.

Cheers & Thanks,
Byron
