So, you ask for help and aren't pleased with the answer, eh? This happens all the time to people who just can't appreciate that maybe, just maybe, they are trying to solve their problem with the the wrong solution.

I hate to see you learn that everyone here believes that it is YOU who have 'spun things around', and it looks like you learned it the hard way, because ....

Congradulations! You have just achieved total strategic ownership of worst nodes of the week!

All in all, i really hope that your thread is not reaped, because it shows how NOT to behave around here. I recommend you apologize to ar0n and japhy (New Jersey ain't so bad ... sort of) and get on with your learning.
