What makes you think there was any 'shit' involved? Just because you use computers for playing games doesn't mean that other people don't have real, paying work to do. Kat isn't storing and processing all that data for fun - someone is paying for it, I'll bet. Unfortunately, I think the task is beyond the capabilities of a pc, which is, after all, still a toy. She really needs either a cluster of pcs, or mainframe time, but maybe Kat hasn't been able to convince her client to pay for all that. Of course, I could be wrong. Perhaps all this data gathering is just step 1 in Kat's plan for world domination. Irv
