Pournellegodalmighty dam. i gather that anything short of perfection is to be avoided; that if one cannot explain what's happening in a hurricane you shouldn't warn anyone that it is coming. your analysis is insteresting, but I do not know how to "change" a hard disk, and I can assure you that fn 37 has managed to write garbage all over the directory in two different hard disk systems. by your logic I should not warn anyone about that since I don't know why it does that. i followed the discussion with some interest; reseting the write vector seems to be the REAL name of the fn 37. I hadn't known that when I wrote my piece; indeed, i put the note about 37 on the net at the same time that I turned in the article. holy catfish
