Hi E!

If you got that tidbit from Wikipedia, you might have noticed that there was no source for it. While Wikipedia provides an interesting starting point for finding out about a topic, it is grossly lacking when it comes to adequate sourcing of material. If there is no named source, it is reasonable to assume that whomever wrote it *made it up* or is repeating what they heard.
