Do you have a source for this?<BR/><BR/>It's not that I don't believe it, but I wouldn't mind finding more detail on the origin.<BR/><BR/>Could it be that the more a story is told (whether it is true or not), the more believed it is? Until no-one questions it?<BR/><BR/>Mike<BR/>mmoedt at vansco dot caAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
