Well I've been coding since the punch cards time and if i have learned
something that is that:

1) you CAN'T create perfect software.
2) The more complexity, the less the perfection
3) Merging code from different ources is always a mess.

if MS does this , then people say their are thiefs, don't they? ;-) Or does

Unlike some people who couldn't tell the difference between source

Gary, Hansen, Al;

W/all due respect, it's nice to see the prostates not interfering with
