Ya, i know. i was *VERY* confused about C/C++ programming when i wrote that
message. Ive been programming in C/C++ for 3 years and i mixed up all that call
by value and call by reference stuff. shit. i should really pull out the old
C++ book and get some things strait in my head again.

sorry about all that confusion. Thanks for straitening my out Bernie and Wolf!
