^^^ Yeah my tone was lost a little (happens when you only have text). Just because I use the word "gross" does not mean I was saying I did not respect your solution Job it worked and required some thought so do not take offense.
I chose the term "gross" because I use it a work a lot when I write something that is visually crypitc or (not pretty) I term it as "gross" it does not mean it is not functional or not a good solution to the problem.
I have used plenty of gross solutions to problems in MySQL because lets face it...MySQL forces us treat it like the cheap dirty girl it is. *cough* like creating a 65 column table to handle scaling issues with large stat databases instead of storing a date field like a normal human being.
So Job my apologies if my context came off rougher then I intended. My major was in Computer Science, my english skills have always and will always be terrible.
