          Well that would explain why my cat seemed rather satisfied this morning :D

          ...Of course, we're talking about software development here, where the simplest solution is often ignored..

            You can sell your cat as firewall. Though you would have to train him recognizing good from bad pigeons.

                That's just it... there's no such thing as a "trained" cat. When you "have" a cat, the only one trained is you. I could sell him as a "futuristic honey pot", though :D

                    No such thing as a good pigeon either, possibly the cat may dispute that.

                    Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH
