The analyses of presumed hidden reasons for the original technical question  
have reminded me of two things:
(1) In 1977 I asked an IBM SE "What system control block in MVS contains  the 
seek address when the I/O is active?  In MVT it used to be the UCB [or  
wherever].  Where is it now?"  The correct answer, of course, was  "IOSB".  
Instead 
he screwed up his face and answered me with "WHY do you  want to know THAT?"  
I ceased bothering him with any more of  my ridiculous questions.
(2) My autosignature beneath.

"As consumers, we want producers to compete.  As producers, we want 
protection from unfair competition. What is unfair  competition? Successful 
competition." [16 JUL 2007; Dr. Gary  North]
