P.S. : Patrick, I'm not the person not to recognize when I'm rigth or
wrong (even if I'm right : so what? ; and when I'm wrong -> I will
learn something) -> the right and the wrong is above the person who
asserts that right or that wrong.
But trust me that he didn't want to help you in what he wrote
(he only played a very sad game...in all he wrote)

***

What he intended or did not intend is immaterial if his information is
correct or, at least, highly probable.
