The not-so-bright one who had access to the bank and the bright one who designed and built a device to put inline at the bank. The device diverted the equiv of pennies per transaction that passed through it to a bank account that the two had set up somewhere. It was a brilliant scheme. They screwed up by trying to withdrawl huge amounts of money at a time. THAT's what got them caught. The point the person was trying to make is still valid though. It would not take long to come up with $100,000 worth of damages. --- John Fraizer EnterZone, Inc
