The only thing we all know now is that you >have no idea how much time and energy it would take to "half-rewrite" a complex >piece of software like DJ7... :) That reminds of the following quote of Robert A. Heinlein: The phrase "we (I) (you) simply must..." designates something that need not be done. "That goes without saying," is a red warning. "Of course..." means you had best check it yourself. And if "everybody knows" such-and-such, then it ain't so, by at least ten thousand to one. Sargon PS. Now that half of DJ was rewritten, maybe it can kibitz on ICC now. ;)
