Well, actually fixing the bug is a "second tier" for me that I'm less
concerned about at the moment.  If we can reach a point of consistency
and integrity with our bugs, that's a major accomplishment.  Thanks for

bugs tidy" tee-shirt to welcome you into the Tidy-Bugs Club.  Watch your 
mail for it.
