Johnathan I am sorry I started this discusion. It's only because this is such a great website and showing the figures from three positions is excellent ,that I wanted to ensure that it continues to have the respect that it deserves...
Nothing to be sorry about. The message board is here for this purpose. Everything we put out there is subject to scruitiny by the public, and that's the way it should be.
The only statement you made I didn't like was the generalization about "all Americans". It only served to diminish the credibility from the rest of your otherwise well written and well intentioned post.
Other than that, keep up the good work, and thank you for your contributions.
Regards,
Jonathan
