    We have had this thread countless times before, and I think this is about the third recent one I've seen here in about tow days. Please do a search of the forums and see how many threads there already are on this topic, each containing just as many proofs that this is true.

    I know how to end the debate: lock the thread. :tongue: Which I am going to do before it starts attracting the crackpots who insist they are unequal.
