I am not going to waste time teaching you how to use google. If you can’t find simple information on your own, hire a librarian.

Sheesh!

I am sorry; you have misunderstood. My prior post was a polite way of accusing you of making up information. However, I don’t wish to derail this thread with bickering over a minor detail, so I’ll leave it at that.

Yeah, I did the google search **TruCelt** recommended as well and it left me wondering whether _s/he_ knows how to use google. I see the $50,000 figure referred to, but the context should make it clear to any novice web searcher that the figure is not to be believed.
