I'm not bashing your scam; I'm just pointing out that it failed. As did 
mine. And, I believe, everyone else's.

I feel especially justified in pointing out that this one failed, 
because it was based on my own logic, which I have already admitted was 
in error. No jab was intended, and I apologize if one perceived.

Damn. I hate typing 'perceived'. I always think the 'i' should come 
first.
