Greetings!
Thank you - but I did read it! I was just using it as an example - it
was no reflection on you relating the material. I didn't mean to
misquote the exact identity of the individual who related it to you but
that wasn't important. I was using it in conjunction with the dynamic
brake loss, and this from a person who REPAIRS PCCs, to indicate that
not all information is valid, even when it comes from someone who IS a
very credible source. It is simply hand-me-down information which is
accepted as such until verification is made.
