I work at a bank (almost all banks in the Netherlands have token-ring, not ethernet) but not for long anymore. I'll be gone there in a few weeks (and I'm very glad about that). So I don't have much self-interest anymore either. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Peter Mutsaers | Abcoude (Utrecht), | "Quod licet bovis, plm@simplex.nl | the Netherlands | non licet Jovi."
