    Did you stumble upon it, or did you create it? I'm going to guess your last name is Casper, no?

    Well, he has now removed his name from the thing as well as my admission.

    Bubba, or any other moderator, I believe this should be locked or at least remove the link CommonTater had the poor sense to duplicate.

    Not being a jerk CommonTater, but you shouldn't have done that.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
