Tony!

Are you sure you have the right to muzzle others?  I just wonder...

BTW, this non-productive discussion started long time ago. I tried to 
push it on a sounder ground asking for references.

I am sorry to say that I gather from Heiner's answer that he has not 
much of a clue about the topic he started...

Best regards,

    Leszek

Gentlebeings,

This conversation is not productive.  Please cease and desist.
