To be fair, as you had been rather late to the party (4 days later), you 
should have read the whole thread (as it was not so long), at least not 
*only* the OP, before your first follow-up.

serialize()/unserialize() had already been suggested by more than one 
person, at least one of which you have not killfiled, I suppose ;-) and 
*then* discarded by the OP.  Likewise, JSON had been suggested in the same 
way.

So, while your attempt at completeness is commendable, it was unnecessary.
