Britannica website is not working for me and you're email request for a response is not responding. I use this website: http://www.torrentfreak.com/ I would like to address the other email I've received. Now, I'm not one to use proper spelling and grammar, but you are making a very serious and factual claim that several people have been arguing for years, and have been ignored by everyone. This claim you are making, is what people have been complaining about for a long time. Why are you ignoring this? Where is the proof you're making it? I am not trying to further your argument here, but I feel you need to address this.
