Yep, I did post that on another thread. I was in the 'moderation phase' though and by the time it got posted everyone had moved on. I thought it was interesting enough to post it in isolation. Obviously you don't and that's fine.Originally posted by Dow Jones View PostYou've also posted the same qn twice on another thread.Comment
