I spent 15 minutes looking and did not find it. You can argue that I
should have, but the fact remains I did not. I did you no harm by
asking a question.  You are not obligated to answer it.  The answer
may be of general interest to people who never even thought to ask the
question.  If I asked you face to face you would not dream of
answering that way.

The problem is too MUCH irrelevant crap you have to wade through when
you search.  

The answer to many such a question is simply the magic vocabulary that
evokes the desired info.  But you have to find the information to know
the magic vocabulary. Catch 22.
