Mikhail made a reference to buying a bottle of dry red wine in a store in
the original email which you've sent me the link to.  Not sure why you
didn't notice it. :-)

Right, sorry I didn't catch the point originally from mi@.  I was viewing
the issue from a limited angle.  Doug pointed out exact deficiency in my

the leaf ports).  Previously I did not consider that dependency might be
held for some reason.
