It was an accident. I swear. You know, sometimes you aim for the ++, but some mysterious force draws your cursor over to the -- (not enough coffee maybe? too much coffee? Or Lagavulin?). Sometimes you even notice your mistaken vote and intend to hit the +=0 before you hit submit, but forget. In the nearly seven years I've been here, it's happened to me at least twice. But not on this thread. The point being, as tye said, a single downvote doesn't mean anything. Or maybe he didn't say that...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
