Pierre, thank you for that clarification. =A0As I've just written=
elsewhere, I'm not enough of an expert to answer your questions,
but I do observe that you've already done more homework than
most poeple would do. =A0Please don't take this the wrong way, but
my answer would've been completely different had I known you had
made some effort before asking the question.

Again, my intent was not to be snarky or dismissive. =A0If it appeared
that way to you then I apologise unreservedly.
