Furthermore, count() is just that, a tally of the rows as a query column in
and of itself. The RecordCount variable is an attribute of the query
object. Returning a query object assumes that you wish to do something with
it, other than count how many rows are returned. If you're just wishing to
count the items with x criteria, your intent is closer to count() anyway. :)
