true, oh pharao.
but otoh it isn't the first attempt to clarify the issue and virtually  
every other attempt very fast went in any other direction but a satisfying  
answer -- since the issue is still of interest for a lot of people it's  
not unrealistic at all that hope that this time it would stay in-topic.
in vain, as it turns out ...
