Hmmm, must have got lost in the post/noise, as I didn't see that 
request.  In any case having reviewed Hartmut's responses, while there 
was one intemperate comment, by and large all the reviewers (Hartmut 
included) have made many good points.  I sense there's a good deal of 
misunderstanding / miscommunication going on which is leading to 
frustration on all sides, so please folks, lets keep it civilized, so we 
can  reach a considered conclusion to the review.

Temporarily doffing moderator hat yours, John.
