I must admit, however, to being even more disturbed by your use of the phrase "you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a _____." Do you, er, generally swing dead cats, on a regular basis sort of thing? Is there something about you which we should know, and someone like AJ can tell? :) Greg It’s a good point.
