I should stay out of the technical dead horse/discussion and stick to offensive behavior that is my specialty but I feel I need to respond one more time. 

Value to who? Some random $BRIGHTIDEAGENERATOR who has no idea of the amount of work involved for those that actually do the work? 1 for and 100 against because it is the 100 that will have to do the work to make the 1 happy? The $BRIGHTIDEAGENERATOR always says "Oh I can help do the work." Then after they look at the reality of the situation discover what is actually involved from an engineering standpoint... they turn in to vapor. There was just a 60 message thread on this topic, why start another flamefest thread of doom?

Sorry again, I disagree.
