	No, I didn't take any offense at what you had said.  I was trying 
to explain my personal perspective and the issues I felt needed to be 
balanced, but I was also trying to explain that although I might feel

policy is determined to be.

	I think I remember what that official policy is, but I will check 
to make sure.
