Heh, beat me to it calling him a redneck... obviously you noticed the
distinctive traits amongst all those in the pics :)

And yeah... he was extremely lucky not to have been injured or worse,
judging by those shots!

Here's a free tip wayne. When you correct someone and then call them stupid
it's really important to make sure you're right otherwise you end up looking
rather silly yourself.

Clocky,

The link should be available it's probably just one down for a short time
for some reason.

pps files work just fine in Open Office Impress.

IIRC, there is a plug-in that makes OO work as a mozilla/firefox plugin,
in which case it *would* open in a browser, along with every other office
