As you can imagine, I get asked the same questions often...
That doesn't mean they are BAD questions, in fact, it often indicates they
are GOOD questions that aren't properly addressed elsewhere. Here
are the answers to some of them.

Most of the following is for historic purposes only. I'm not even sure what those historic purposes are, except some of the info just isn't elsewhere that I'm aware of.
