I guess I was "completely wrong".. I wasn't taking a shot at anyone...look, we all know Beyer's group- who I have a lot of respect for- has become more and more subjective and less mechanical through the years, so that his figures are different than those he produced with Formal Gold. Maybe they're better, but there is more of a human element now and humans are apt to push for superlatives instead of a near miss.
