Well that's EXACTLY what i thought..... Sorry David. There was nothing of a personal nature in my post, unless you mean the word 'stupid'. I used it because its the same word Derek used to describe his opinion in the post I was replying to. I quoted his comment in my post. You have removed this from the top of your reply, as I'm sure you must be aware. >So if i were to ask you to return all 100K bytes of this >email, you'd land in a mental institution? Eu would, >figuratively speaking. >Kat So if you asked me for $100 and I diddnt have it so i gave you 3 $10 notes and the rest in monopoly money that would be ok? AND HERES THE REAL PROBLEM ---> What if you dont notice, then you go to the supermarket and and try to pay for your groceries? Will the cashier accept the monopoly money? Maybe. Hopefull not, because every time somebody accepts it, the bug is one step further down the line, and when it enevtaully stops, you've got a hell of a mess trying to figure out who's handing out the bad cash...
