Ed,
What a conundrum! I think the wise thing to do is wait a little while and see
if
any more "sage advice" comes to light.
Surely in the combined wisdom of our extinguished (oops, distinguished) group,
somebody knows the real reason why it should go one way or the other. If not,
it's
coin-flip time.
I'm glad you brought this up before I began the installation of my
"swing-spring"
upgrade. So, I guess you are the appointed "guinea pig" on this one.
Regards,
Joe
