I can't control what people run on their boxes when they run my code nor can I easily dictate. Fair enough, but you could `use threads 1.67;` or whatever version has all the features/fixes you are dependant upon. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.	[reply] [d/l]
