    Well.
    For my excuse I have to say that I am *not* asking this simple question
    (though I find the answers interesting) to perform some kind of social
    engineering to this list. That's blattant nonsense.

    I just found no acceptable lecture about this topic in my own collections of
    books or other documentations.

    Thanks for the answers,
     Alex
