	Yes, you are correct in it being compliant. At which point did I refuse 
to admit I was mistaken? Please enlighten me. Or maybe you didn't bother 
to read all of what I said.

	Again, putting words in my email message. I never said I had one 
definitive source. What I did say, actually imply, in a different 
message was that people should always be wary of what one place says is 
fact.
	Also, what I'm saysig is that Wikipedia has more errors & issues than 
other repositories of imformation.
