Of course it crossed my mind, immediately. But that wasn't the point. You don't know whether they were or not. Nor in which direction if so. Yet you immediately changed the values that you found to better suit your ideas.

IOW, you wanted those values no matter what numbers were posted. That is your typical poor methodology. That is what I was pointing out to Sirfiroth's

Don did not pull the numbers out of thin air...

You effectively DID pull them out of thin air since you didn't use the exact values you yourself posted. Without knowing which way, if any, the rounding off went then you could be right on the money or three feet off.

You changed the values in your first post to better suit what you wanted but in the second post you did not because they were "close enough" to what you needed.

So somehow the values in the first post weren't "close enough" to your preconceived values so they needed to be adjusted from actual values posted.

Typical!
