Roland - love ya bud - but you are a little off here.  The only time you loose 
information is when you actually save a file to a jpg. 

Opening and closing the file doesn't change it's properties.  Opening it, 
compressing it, and saving it out again does...  

JPG is a compressed file format.  Depending on the compression, it throws away 
data that it doesn't think you need in order to make the file size smaller but 
still be representative of the original.  The more a file is compressed, the 
smaller it gets and the more detail that gets lost.
