in thread sort direction

Sorry ysth. What you were demonstrating with your use of overload went right over my head (a mention of sort stability would have been a cluebat).

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.

    I should have applied the cluebat in my first response to you; sorry. In my initial post I purposefully didn't because I was hoping people would stop and ponder why there was the difference.
