I have no earthly idea why my statement offends you. I simply stated that it's a common mistake made by those who don't study or frequent discussion boards. I didn't say a thing about your partner. Are you denying that he was mistaken?

As Tom stated, the situation is not that weird. Since you brought your partner up, if he doesn't understand how loss of down effects this situation, then he's not in the rule book as much as he needs to be. Like it or not.
