Per extrapolation only, though, & primarily based on drawing from
references to HHGTTG Infinite Improbability Drive, another
fictional construct.  (Also, I think you may have missed the point
it was I was addressing, about some people feeling that you _can_ do
W10 & using my originally cited examples as "proof" of it. Note
repetition of the ""'s from my other post. )
