"....take care if guys announce a something they sell.....marketing gimmick...." and so forth. God's Own Country is far away - but, believe it or not, we got some - true - experts down here as well. ( And they know what they're doin'. ) In case you'd invest your precious tiome to risk a peek into our NG - you'd find out, that alle the settings will be available to the public - for free - ( if THIS is your specific & major interest ) - but, noone to wonder - of course AFTER we've released them to our - selling - audience. Nature of business, ain't it ? Y13, BTW - is of such a potential, that the distributing Co invited us to clarify a shared business. But, don'tcha worry - you'll get it in the end - for free. OK ? Last : concerning "smacks of fiction" : listen - as polite as I can express it : I can't help it if you don't know but I AM the by far eldest journalist in this scene still on duty, the eldest remaining professional together with Ed Schroeder and Dave Kittinger - w/w - BTW. Do you really think I'd risc my reputation for a bean counter salary ? Surelly not. Evidence 'll give proof and truth will set me free - original US spoken words, ain't they ? c/u ELVIS
