I must have missed How about you name one single eval term that would be extremely difficult to implement given DB's design? ... What? You can't name one term? That shows that: A) you don't know very much about DB's design at all B) you haven't even thought about it very hard >I also don't see two EEs here. Maybe Chris, although I don't know. Who is >the other one with an EE degree? As far as his claim that it _must_ be a I'm 10 credits away from an EE degree. If you think I'm somehow not an EE because I don't have these 10 credits (yet) then you are impossibly close-minded. -Tom
