Thanks for your post, Bruce. I thought I was going to have to fight this 'war' on my own for a while there, and I'm really not 'armed' properly to do that.
For all others, excuse the 'war' metaphor, but it is a battle of wits here - I can't let the nonsense that's been posted stand as 'fact' when it's clearly not the case. It's good to see that I did understand the issues correctly for the most part, after all. And I'm glad to see someone back me up.
Again, thanks to Bruce. I'm feeling pretty much vindicated right now. :-)
