There is absolutely no chance that the PHP team will change PHP4 to
behave that way.
Look - I'm wanting to do like you guys say, be all correct about not
cutting academic corners. I much prefer doing it right, simply because
it is right.
But this is a PHP application, with some value added by OOP - not the
other way around.
And as y'all full well know, PHP4 ain't a proper OOP language. So no
matter how much I might bend over backwards to treat it that way - it
ain't gonna happen cause it can't.

Sloppy, in this case, would be to get sidetracked into adding redundant
features in order to program pure OOP - even though the language doesnt
fully support it and the environment doesn't not require it.
I appreciate y'alls help - but I'm here to please the end user, not the
consultants.
And really... about those charities...
