niKlaus, please make sure your answers go in the answer box. Back in 2011 there were not two separate boxes for answers and comments, I think, which is why you will occasionally see old answers in the comments box. You can help in these cases by entering the correct answer into the answer box (as long as you research it yourself first). I flagged your answer, not because it's in the wrong place, but because it seemed to be incorrect, but having looked at a couple more sources I think you're right!
