Hello Conrad, happy easter.

There is and was never intention to apply "force", it is a question as I'm curious about
what's going on with vt() - no personally bound to B. Evans or anybody else - I just took
the chance to comment/ask on that subject when I saw postings.

Maybe not the right place to spread some thinkings.

Oliver Hartmann
