Very well noted Marcus, and I must admit that it is indeed very disappointing to the considerable number of readers out there who often may be researching topics and these details would be most helpful.
In defense of the guys in this discussion, including our late friend Lew, were actually so well versed in these fields that they likely were just complacent. Despite the level of detail many of us place in posts, we are not held to any academic standards, so such placement is purely voluntary.

I did, however, respond with what I could find as an answer on the other trumbash thread, and noted source for what I hope will offer some useful explanation.
