You are correct, thank you for clarifying... however, the entire tone of
the message was in need of scrubbing before the poster hit the send
button. I don't think any message where the foundation is accused of
misleading the public (et cetera) would be conducive to academic
discussion on foundation-l. Especially when the OP forgot, or does not
have evidence to support that statement. So my statement, as of now...
stands.
