Frankly I hate the goto() calls. :-)  Doesn't that double the load on the 
server, since Drupal gets built up, processes the request, redirects, and 
then gets built up AGAIN to display the page it was already at?  What's the 
advantage of the goto, when the downside is doubling the load on the system?

of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
