OK.  I idea was that someone who knew alot about one particular would 
respond to that question, and other someone who knew alot about another 
particular would respond to another question, and so forth.  A poor 
idea?  Seeing the result, I guess so.  Sorry to have bothered anyone.

When I said "harsh", I meant being accused of trolling, attempting to 
annoy, stir trouble, etc.  None which was my intent nor did I think that 
my post would be interpreted as such (otherwise I wouldn't have posted it).

Thank you for your help.
