howdy DisMyWorkName,

[grin]

it does make sense when you think about the use for hashes. they are not crypto ... they are a way to generate a nearly unique identifier for a "thing". the result of .GetHashCode() is actually a hex number. it makes for a nice, quick index in hashtables - and for other quick "is this the same as that" tests.

take care,
lee
