Aye and then I hear until eternity that why does subscriptions and notifications exist. I do not know whether I was right. I wish I knew! I dont. I love when I can code whatever I want because people review it and then someone else makes the decisions. I hate making decisions and living with the responsibility. And even so sometimes we err -- db_rewrite_sql, I look at you... (gone in D7, thanks god)
