== Chill out on the lead for G-d's sake == 
 Can we slow down a little with these incessant modifications of the lead?  The usual protocol is to copy whatever version of the lead has enjoyed some stability and paste it in on the talk page, list your objections to it and propose a substitute in draft form.  Then others either echo your objections or dismiss them.  If the latter, you're out of luck.  If the former, then they make suggestions and modifications to your draft rewrite.  By and by the draft rewrite tightens and refines and gets backing; and when it reaches some critical mass of consensus and stability it's moved, with a certain amount of fanfare, into the article itself. 

 The lead isn't the place to build sandcastles to be knocked down by the next caprice of the tides.   

 I'm not going to edit-war with you, Urthogie, but it may interest you to know that the last paragraph of the lead as you've got it now is virtually a word-for-word repetition of the second-to-last.  Then again, that's probably all changed in the three minutes I've taken to write this.
