Got it in one Marc. CCAOK did not tell us, I watched it again this weekend just to be sure. As I said before, it's all specualtion and conjecture and each viewpoint has pros and cons associated with it. I could make a case for or against each idea that has been put forward here. I do think it's an open ended issue. :)
It's interesting to see the different points of view on the subject.
