...hhmmm, this I wasn't aware of. I think Renault mentions that it was out of the way, and strategically insignificant. Green seems to indicate that it was a little bit off the beaten trail (I'll have to re-read as well). Either way, both scenarios are not necesarrily in conflict with each other. Meaning that they could co-exist with a different perspective in mind.later Nicator
