Sigh. As you maybe know, I am a writer. Well, now after 5 years of hard work -that is to say, in the free time my five jobs let me for MY business- I am finishing a huge novel and even after so many revisions aliong the years and rewrittings and fixings I still find "bugs". Nevertheless, and this is the point for your consolation, each time I find a bug I am very happy because that means the novel has inmediately got better after amputation of it. The terrible thing would be to work in your stuff and NOT discovering anything wrong. That's moment for really to get worry. Cheers Fernando
