Michael,

I agree with you. It's a sickness.

It took 20+ years to figure out the British strength rating codes!  I just
learned a new fact last night, there is a "Y" strength rating (80-90 tsi)
that I've never heard about before, and who really cares as it was probably
used on British Tanks or Battleships.

Cheers

C
