Thank you Terry.  I appreciate your input on the matter as you actually
provided information instead of random drivel.

Brad could very much be right in the end.  He just couldn't get
past his DJB hatre to provide any real merits in his argument (like
judging software base on ease of configuration and the size of the
configuration file - what was that all about?).  I am not surprised,
however, about Dan's antics.  I've observed his conversations since
he was a graduate student at NYU.

I do have a question though:

Can you explain this further?  I've read it about 5 times and I am
not sure I understand exactly.

Tim
