I do not follow this. You should understand that Todd is not a pile of logic
circuits - he is capable of changing his mind. But that was not the
intention of my post. The aim of my post was to get an idea of what people

people do not care either way. That is why post like this one can sit for
over 2 weeks without being mentioned:
