Hi Denis,

I tried the website and found it a pain to get around. Is there an email address for the author and/or the editor published in the magazine? I don't think we should laugh or cry, just inundate them with emails clarifying their lack of knowledge on the subject.

VFP is not even advertised as being a part of that test. Each of these products have a coverage of about two pages.
