Personally I just do it ........ can't remember who said that.

Thanks Jimmy for the input. I guess I was just thinking that a round table like discussion might pull out some "Theories" as to why it works. Kind of like when you do a scientific experiment. You have a question. You know something works, but since you don't know why, you test it and find an answer even if it's what you think or not. And thus I am hoping someone has done such testing, or that some theories could be tossed into the pile for good thought and some good discussion and some wacked ideas can also be tossed out.

Sure, experimentation and analysis of results is always profitable. I have nothing but admiration for those who are so inclined. I'm just not wired to be one of them. I'll be following this thread with interest, hoping to finally find out 'why' it works. In the meantime, I'm just happy that it does.
