Now ABF, try and keep in the spirit of this thread. I mean, what is wrong with you? "Two of the tallest" means just that, so don't be a jerk and get in an idiotic debate where you are clearly wrong in THIS of all threads. If you wish to continue this, just make a new thread or something.
As far as Weltall's suggestion, I mainly just was talking about the 9/11 thread. Doing the whole thing? It would be much quicker (and more rewarding for those involved) to just write a program to convert the data from one format to the other (since one doesn't seem to exist yet). At the moment, I don't have the free time to help, nor do I think do the rest of the programmers-in-training. It would certainly be a fun project if any of us could find some free time.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
