James, I understand your point. I think that the others who have responded also understand your point. We simply disagree with your conclusion. I encourage you to consider the possibility that if the many experts in this field who have responded all think that your conclusion is flawed, then there might be something to that. I will agree, though, that this is a good time to conclude this discussion. Sincerely, Lane Schwartz
