[AccessD] POLL: Access Security

William,

  I think you vastly underestimate the time and energy that goes into
something like that.  But hey, it's sounds like you volunteered<g>.  I'm not
implying your 5 years old, but that if it really is that easy, put your
money where your mouth is.

  I'm waiting for my copy.
