What'cha mean "remotely famous"? I have been using it and it did contain my ego for quite a long time. That's why its so big and that's why I need a bigger one now.

I'm starting a fund raising comitee to raise money to keep this valuable folder in the UK. With patrickG owning this it very well be infamous one day. I would hate to see something like this leave. It would just break my heart.

If you wish to donate I will send you my swiss bank account number to which all deposits must be made.

I'll puting in the first shinny canadian nickle that I forgot to leave at home.

Alright. Added to the list.

I might add that all proceedings will go to my charity. So, I won't keep a penny, all the money will go towards new PHP programmers (minus the administrative fee, of couse).

I got a promise that I can send the broken down arrow key on my notebook to you if that will help persuade you.

Who know's it might come in handy if you have a toshiba.

Hmmm, I don't have a Toshiba. Maybe I could sell it on ebay? Now, that's an idea!

Ack, but you could donate the money to my charity! Then at last will everyone be able to start programming PHP! Would you deny that?

And yes, phpScott, you're right, but that's the nature of money, isn't it? It goes round and round and round...
