Ovidiu,
I'm sorry, but that's 7%, as you may infer from the reference I enclosed.
Nevertheless, since I picture myself as a rather scientific guy, I await your proof to the contrary... but, mind you, I graduated in
Statistics... grin... huge grin :)

Hi Luca,
But I did write 70, not 7!
(This is one thing I found interesting during my statistics course,
