Sabre,
I wonder too about the questions you raised. I sent an email to the author of the article inviting him to join this discussion.
I agree, one report sparks the need to read more. Some the articles about this subject have conflicting conclusions. Maybe others would like to comment, Lar are your still around?..It's been rather quiet here lately. Thanks to everyone. This is a great board with great people.
