after reviewing my correspondance with Dr. Bunch it seems we were both wrong in terms of wat material is 'fresher' - i thought you had it backwards but what it seems the official opinion is - is that the material that is porous with black 'scale' on the outside it the more weathered - this can occur in both the brown AND the blue - I have seen it more in the blue than I have the brown in terms of number of pieces - but the feature is probably equally distributed in terms of weight of material. _________________________________________________________________ Your Hotmail address already works to sign into Windows Live Messenger!
