Ok, Alistair, I did fail to notice that you used "damn" rather than "dam." But, in my circles, most dams are just a means of damning a stream. That is, once the stream is dammed, it is damned. Maybe this one will recover eventually, now that the damned dam is gone. mcneely ---- Alistair Bell <albell@shaw.ca> wrote: > Good grief Dave, you didn't even notice the spelling of dam in the subject line.

Now a lot of crap is being broadcast about it. Good grief ............. . mcneely > -- David McNeely
