But you must still remember tom that the "think before you speak" idea comes in very handy when your drunk and trying to talk your way into a nite club... otherwise it could lead to trips to the hospital!!! :laugh: Regards, Brian Dela :-)

          :omg: Evidently, the Russians are going to bury the killed Chechen hostage takers in pigskin! Muslim jihad rebels believe they will ascend immediately to heaven as a result of their attacks. Howevr, being buried in a pigskin is supposed to prevent that. Obviously these guys are serious about sending a message [^] to terrorists. Cheers, Tom Archer Author - Inside C#, Visual C++.NET Bible

Yup.

                      IIRC a US general did the same on the Phillipines. Just once. No more muslim attacks under his reign Maybe a Urban Legend, though.

He may leave the book to St Peter, and go have fun I thought the souls of C++ coders who come into contact with anything VB related are tainted forever? St Peter would not admit a tainted soul, especially one carrying a VB book. I hear if a VB coder DIMs some water and throws it on a C++ coder he explodes! Then again if you drive a pointer through a VB coders heart they also explode. ;)
