It will surprise you, but neither do I. It may surprise you further that
quite a few of us make our money running networks and writing code that will
never see the light of day outside of those networks, and have been doing so
at a furious clip for almost as long as AppleScript has been around. Nor do
we spend our time telling other people that since they haven't written as
much code as we have, or have as many entries in VersionTracker as we have,
that they don't have anything valid to say.

So you'd rather COMPLETELY waste that time in carping on a list but not the
five minutes it takes to copy and paste your research into a bugtracker
form?

You don't rely on THE FINDER????
