We're now well off the previous trail and fast getting into tit for tat land.
May I suggest that we have a coffee or two, take ten deep breaths, and worry less about point scoring and more about the underlying technical concerns of the Type ? There is no (and has not been for many years) question that the Type is a little controversial and the basic thread is useful for discussing that point.
My regards to Graham Murphy if anyone speaks with him .. haven't seen him in years since he was with InterAir.
