Then you make tests, just like you do, fair and correct. And then you come into the period where you must evaluate your results. You see that you have no clear umber one. Now two possibilities: 1) You go on into decisive mode and do further tests, the "list" date can wait. 2) You stay to your traditions and show up with your list. But then, please, do NOT present the list either in the classical way, nor in your joking Mr. Bean version, but simply make such packages: 1.-3. A B C 4.-5. D E 6. F 7.-10. G H I etc. Tell me please, where the problem is with this method? Is it because you have kind of strong wish to present a umber one by all means? Please let's simply discuss this little topic. If you tell me, listen, Rolf, I am not allowed to tell you, but you are right, that a umber one prog is very important for us. Then, Tony, I am out of the debate, because I had great respect for your amateur approach. Comps are not cheap either. etc. To make it clear. I would not oppose sponsering. But if you said, but Rolf, look, we have a real number one! That is the exact result of our statistics. - Then however, I will continue to ask polite questions. Rolf Tueschen
