I think he was refering to my post (sorry!), in which I just told him to
make those 4 or 5 calls conditional, without specifics of how to do it...

BTW, your reply to that guy's post really confused me, becasue some of the
lines had wrapped becasue of the the email client, and the original program
was quoted by that guy before he emailed it, then your unconventional way
of handling it (now explained)...

I was thinking the same thing myself, and yes, I know, _my_ sig is 11 lines
long, but it's a compact sig, with contact info, and a quote, while "3D
Diamond productions", is just a huge ascii diamond, plus a presig (did I
make that word up?).
PS -- Will, you might want to change the name, "3D diamond" sounds like a
design company, while it is evident (I dont mean to be insulting) that this
is not the case, jusging from your webpages...
