If you think that my question was not "specific" then you clearly do not understand what it is I was asking and in my opinion you have no business replying to it in the first place. It is my understanding that this forum is for purpose of sharing information, experience, and specific knowledge. Further, my question is not mainstream and does not warrant the ever tired "RTFM" which is so prevalent in these groups. The question I asked is purely a "one-off" question that one cannot glean directly from the documentation, I challenge you to prove me wrong otherwise please only respond to questions to which you know the answer.
