Yep, but one doesn't go into minute details when giving a broad-based 
answer :-) .

In another place a person asked a question which contained several 
questions. Each question required someone writing a short essay as an 
answer. My private response to that person was just this: search the 
internet for the information - eg, the information re each question is 
fully available on wikipedia - and then ask on the list for anything not 
fully understood.
