Thanks for the reply - a little bit over the top though. I'm only testing
the ground, not proposing any radical new theory. Its just as I said, when,
under certain circumstances, the coder is interrogated it seems to be able
to produce a picture of possible outcomes. Nothing more or less. The larger
bit sequencing was to see if this is what is really happening and if there
was something worth investigating. End of story.
