	Luis,

	Yes! Youre right! I neglected/forgot about this way of
	doing it in UML (dont know where my mind is
        this week). But in your following explanation about readablity, I 
	completely agree. Thanks for this clarification.

	I guess I dont feel strongly about allowing "my" way
	of diagramming the associations, but it would be nice to
	be able to do, as needed, for readability purposes.

					-b.t.

If you _really_ feel this strongly about the bug, you could
either try to increase the number of hours a day for all of
us or you could talk to my boss about hiring me as a consultant
to fix the problem for you on an emergency basis :)
