Well, you have a good point, and I will do that. However, I'm surprised 
there doesn't seem to be some uniformity on this subject.

Yes, removing them directly is an option, but I prefer to find out why 
the discrepancy? BTW, I really do not plan to remove them now. The 
anomaly does deserve an answer.

To suggest Google as above, makes no sense to me. This is the place to 
ask, as another poster stated.
