   Good point ... I can only excuse myself by stating that I'm sick (and
hence my concentration is a bit off at the moment), combined with the fact
that I *always* put the braces in ... that way, if I ever need to add
something to a loop or other construct I won't accidentaly forget to add
the braces.

   Hmm ... something to think about when my head clears up a bit ;) I *would*
like to be able to label a loop in some way and break out of it.
