johnnypardal,
Scrip DID give sound advice on the other thread on 8/12/04 after publication of the results which were generally accepted as 'good', but which he pointed out were flawed. There was a fairly detailed exchange of posts at that time in which he set out his reasons and he certainly convinced me to keep my finger off the 'buuy' button. "I told you so" may not be attractive to those who will not be told, but maybe the answer is that they should listen next time!
Regards, Ian
