Will place my comments on there. Before this thread is closed.

this is already being discussed and your thread would have contribted quite aptly on page 15 of the very active thread... perhaps you could look at it and add to that, better still I will link yours to that discussion as it is relevent.

an apology doesn't cut it, imo.
