Joe,
Thanks for the correction... I do not claim this to be absolute facts. Thus my "correcting a misuderstanding" above might have been sounding as if I knew the fact (which I don't). My bad.
It is just what I have heard from other "unofficial" sources, such as newspapers, etc. As a matter of fact the above from a newspaper source which I "googled" a few weeks ago.
Well, this is a rumor network after all...and one needs to take everything posted with a little grain of salt, including thyself.
