Seriously, every port I touch has some aspect to it that makes it more  
than just a straight port :)  I used to hate p5's. I love p5's now.   
P5's are totally my friends, all other ports, I am making a list, when  
I go on my killing spree, alphabetical, keeping ASSP rightly at the  
top of that list

Thanks for your other explanations, they were helpful, especially to  
see you had the same thoughts as I did wit using your name in a plist.
