[Martin Hannigan]

It was a legit question and I thought exactly the same thing about it
going to the list and was checking before I forwarded it.
                                          When I do speak as someone
from the MLC, Ill say so. I usually do.
   May have been easier to ask what I meant before jumping the gun.
