Exactly -- this is what I meant.  There is no way the programmer(s)
could have anticipated garbage input, so I don't begrudge them the
bug.

However, I expect them to acknowledge it as a bug, and plug
this hole accordingly.

(I'm becoming pretty exasperated by BSW's continuing silence.
I recognize that they don't view this list as "theirs", but I also don't
see any sort of "news" on their website.  

The silence is deafening.    Pass that back to the owners, Jimmie/Trevor.)
