So why are you so obscessed about it then Paul ? Coz you are being
anal, thats why. Its supposed to be caused by poor toilet training
or something. If it gets too bad they call it obscessive compulsive
behaviour and they give you pills for it, or put you in a room with
padded walls and a funky canvas jacket with extremely long sleeves.

Ask Bob, it happened to him |-)

I said so at the time that 6 seconds is more likely, went thru
a different way to calculate that, to the one you used, got the
same answer. Only an anal retentive would still be rabbiting on
about it after all this time |-)
