	I entirely agree, a certain amount of sensible caution is required, but
that should not stop the search for good tools. If you go to download
the databases for the US, there is a huge warning splattered across the
top as to useability, but I'm sure one day ther will be improved and
tested to the point where every aspect will be factually correct.
	Microsoft stuff that crashes, burns or goes senile, yeah!, It DOES
THAT!, just REBOOT.
