The problem can be (not saying it is in this case) that the first book gets it wrong and all the rest use the first one for reference. :-( Despite many of these things being recent and the large about of data/blogs/web pages and books (and many of the players still being alive) I fear were are no closer to an accurate picture of many of these things iver the last 50 years than were are to the lives of the Pharaohs. :-( -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ |
