Heheheh, I get it now, thanks. :-)

Calling a method on a string SEEMS like it should modify the original,
not create a new one, but I guess strings are 'special' all the way
around.  To me, it's kinda like saying 'person.logon(logonid,
password)' creating a new person object and logging them on, while
leaving the original person untouched.
