How can any combination lock be instantly accessible?  Doesn't that depend on the
memory of the user?  And I used to spend countless time breaking into my parents'
locked stuff.  A combination lock = a challenge to a child.

Seeing as how I've never seen you post to tri.gen before this, how can you tell me
whats appropriate?  I assume you live here?  Of course.  I see you run your
business out of your home in Durham.  Well, Steve.  No matter what, you posted a
spam to triangle.general.  Selling stuff does not equal having a discussion.  I
assume you consider it rude to hang up on a telemarketer too, since all they want
to do is discuss with you your feelings about your interest rate?
