Very good points James and you would have discovered that magic would have gotten very few right at all. My sincere apologies Jessica as on quick reflection that was a very insensitive thing to do and once again I am truly sorry.

next time you'll have to rephrase the questions Jessica so people can't just Google the answer so easily.
