Yeah, no one on rasfw understood what I meant either. (And if I meant chapter 52 I would have said so.) I re-read POTD right before LOCB. In fact, IIRC, I read the page in question on July 31 (I got a bit behind schedule), and the omission of a certain name stopped me dead, and then I noticed a second name missing, which caused me to ponder, then wonder (or is that the other way around?), and eventually speculate. --KG
