I'd have maybe phrased it differently, but it's not an unreasonable question - Reagen Jan 13, 14:23 1

  - well, JackDawson commented that he was surprised that ST wasn't all a-blabber about it. Does that count? -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:29
  - coverage is fine, asking dumb questions of someone who has more important things to do.... - groiny Jan 13, 14:28 3
    - like I said above, it's more than a trivial question. -- nm - Reagen Jan 13, 14:29
