I may be wrong... and I will rely on someone else to confirm this... but I don't think that is precisely true. I'll have to see what I can ferret out in that regards. But I would be interested to know where you came by that conclusion. It's something I've heard before... and also something I've heard was not correct.

I ask this in pure interest only... not trying to shoot you down by any stretch of the imagination.

Yours most respectfully,
