Re: If it aint broken , don't fix it!

Annoying, I belive that it is different. The JDK installs the devkit  
+ JRE + "international support" of some kind. The JRE by itself isn't  
sufficient (last I checked, which was a year or so ago) for WO.

His philosophy was a mixture of three famous schools -- the Cynics,  
the Stoics and the Epicureans - and summed up all three of them in  
his famous phrase, "You can't trust any bugger further than you can  
throw him, and there's nothing you can do about it, so let's have a  
drink."
