I was relying on an earlier policy which PTG had posted. The policy posted
as of 2004 is considerably more detailed, and contradicts some of the
statements contained the earlier policy.
    I stand corrected.  Am curious that this newly developed policy hasn't
come to my attention. Have I just overlooked it, or has it been published
anywhere? It sure is hidden in the membership area of the web site.
