wow!


Well, obviously I know I'm not a commentator, and there are hundreds of thousands thinking into it at this momment, plus all te computers of which I have none next to me. So I will cease my ractions at this point. It must be meaningless to most of you who follow with computer! but I think I can see many half ideas which might have caused alot of thinking time, but probably do not work in the end. It's complicated though.

I don't know what any of them are saying, but aren't they praising h3 quite highly? (I just tried to delete this post as my question was actually answered in your last comment..that yes. But It wouldn't delete)
