Yes; but if he really meant that it's a tautology.  That little voice 
still whispers to me, "Bet he meant to say 'exercised' and got it 
wrong".  But you have to be careful with Dim Kleiner's stuff; like Nabil, 
he has assured us repeatedly that he means _exactly_ what he says, and 
gives us golden statements like "I _never_ make misteaks", and, "My 
writings could not possibly be construed in whatever manner to be 
considered ambiguous, or maybe not".

So you may be right, bt351 .. we should take every word at its face value.
