a bit off topic, but I'd just like to say [rant] I HATE any email that I receive with ">" at the start of each line. That bugs the shit out of me. If I open any email and see that shit, (and I don't care who its from) I immediately delete it without even reading what it has to say. What is the point of those stupid little characters anyways? [/rant]
