 yeahyeah, i noticed - appreciated.

 okay.  well, i've had to revert *six* false and misleading statements
on the page... so far.  unfortunately the wikifascists [1] are
beginning to step in - one of them unfortunately has Administrative
rights.  a "COI" notice was set up: this resulted in a rash of further
misleading and factually incorrect statements being made.

 if people care about this, can you please step in?
