David, if I offended you, I sincerely apologize, since your thread is an absolutely awesome one! And, if I haven't said so yet, my deepest compliments on an extremely well-executed and well-researched subject! You've done both the Richelieu and Jean Bart full justice!
No offence taken, I was merely trying to disarm a growing situation.
Thanks for the compliment Bezo, I'm glad you've enjoyed the treads.
