grazie, I capire.

My post was two fold... and I received a *lot* of off-list feedback that
I'll have to respond to tomorrow.

Generally, I know that a title isn't relevant, especially in the small
little area that I'm in. I was just very curious, as it came up in
discussion today.

I like to think that I do everything possible to do my part. To be
honest, I have as much or more interest in protecting other ASs than I
do our own clients (shhh ;)

Thanks very much Jorge. Although this was a fast-paced thread that was
very entertaining, you've enlightened me.

Cheers,

Steve
