I never asked you to go on "blind faith" -- I quoted the
documentation.  Let me do it again: "This method is *not* the
appropriate place to initialize form value for an 'update' type page."
 I don't know what "word" could be more authoritative than the
documentation.

If it is my "words" that you don't have "blind faith" in, than I guess
you never will -- I don't drink.  ;)
