Sidenote: How can you " absolutely know " this is not a strike when your partner felt it was ?
Just curious.
I agree w/ you Tony...it was just something that I was thinking about. As to your sidenote, I was just putting forth the "worst-case scenerio." Again, this didn't happen, I was just curious....
