   Mr.Ville Vainio, I really impressed by your detector and the way
you snip others' comments. Thanks.

   If you do *programming* without knowing what to pass to a function
or what a function returns, you're a complete idiot as a idiot can be.
Moreover, if you take it as an argument against PHP, you're yet
another ignorant and obviously you don't have any rights to speak
about PHP nor anything.

   Yes, people with functioning brain may already conculded that when
you posted your previous message itself.

   If you post these jottings to the PHP ignorants, they may even
build a statue for you. But, I guess, it is hard to get that kind of
ignorants.

   Thanks Mr.Ville Vainio for sparing your time to provide brilliant
comments.

   HTH. HAND.
