It was a joke, nothing more. I should have left more cookie crumbs after 
saying it, to indicate that it was a pretty cludgy solution to your 
problem... but Kristian, thanks for the explanation of my solution, at the 
very least. I hope I harmed no one's computer... if I did, I'm just an 
e-mail away. I'll try to be better with the jokes next time. 

Eric, I have a few almost every night (sitting in front of the computer) and 
the only time I actually did an "rm -rvf /" was at work when I was 100% 
sober. At least it was telling me I was killing my own install, while it was 
happening. :D
