<digression>I can never remember whether one's supposed to answer "yes"
or "no" to a tag-question like that, as it varies with language. In
Norwegian I would have said "jo", which is how to answer the opposite of
a negative; "You're not the owner of that thing, are you?" "Jo", where
"jo" means, I am the owner.</digression> NB is short for nota bene, the
ftp-server used to be on a different machine, but the mobo died (r.i.p)
