Fellow posters, please note that a journalist is on the loose! He e-mailed me direct, asking for information about this thread; I guess that he probably did the same to other posters. Mr Dalton, I'm aware that you have job to do, but, if you want information, try asking for it out in the open. Also, whilst you use your own name in your Profile, you haven't exactly been forthcoming with your occupation:
