Count me as number 3!!!

I have complained directly to Apple (through Outside Bug Reporter) about 
the openCard message before newCard message. These can't be impossible bugs
to fix, and they've been around since version 1.0.  I don't know why somebody
doesn't just sit down and fix them.  I guess they just effect us "stack-heads"
and aren't a top priority.

sigh..
