This one is pretty straightforward, but it's always intrigued me that some totally incomprehensible thing, looked at from the perspective of someone on the hook for making it work, suddenly becomes plausible and even rational. Not that this is always the case, but it happens often enough to buffer the 100% this, or 100% that binary assessment because I believe so approach. There's a certain annoying majesty to the "because it does for this simple reason" answer, as opposed to a sexier, shinier, "looks good on the wall, but mere mortals like yourself aren't privy" sort of vague posturing that happens so often. In other words, if that ain't it, I don't know. But it looks to me that that's it. Ron N
