They seemed to eager to do it before I could back it up. Now, where are they? It seems that the Altar Boy just got thumped again by the "Fed/Juco wannabe".

The two separate books have been around for almost half of a century. Even the new black book for the MLB has a separate section for American League only rules. Since these books are issued to professional umpires, it is hard to get your hands on them. But, they are out there - especially the older versions. It makes for some boring reading, but a bar bet is a definite possibility.
Are you a peacock? It sure sounds like you're trying to show some sort of dominance on something that means absolutely nothing.

Although I can't speak for Altar Boy or Wizard, I hazard a guess that they didn't respond because they don't want to talk to you. Which is the decision I should have made instead of typing this message.

Edit: this simple message was edited so that you think there was originally something complex here.
