argh what a bad memory I have (no kidding, lately...), I actually had planned
add a 0 at the end of the numbers of the windows, but for some reason what i
finally did was adding a 2 at the beginning, so they got multiplied by a factor
beetween 3 and 7.

just for correctness.

am sorry to take your time.

enjoy the rest of the year.

happy second year of the new millenium.

best wishes,
Antonio.
