@ Quest:  you are right it  was a political agenda on my part...   And this did happen due to a stupid local city ordinance law...  But my agenda meant to look a little further into the probabilities of cold hearten privatization...  I would not consider it a far reaching feathers to scales comment.. 
but a micro sample of what can easily happen in a grander scheme of things....

thanks for your civil educated response,,
