Hi Bob,
this question has been answered many times. You have answered this question just
recently.

Let me ask a question: What is 2 x 2 ?
Hhm ... Do you think this question impies I do not know the answer?
It impies a) I'm stupid or  b) I can not read or c) I can not learn.
Here you may see the conection.

Anyway, this or similar questions come up such often, so they should be in a
faq. The niveau of CCC is going down. If this process continues I will do just
like others do.

Kind regards
Bernhard
