Sorry if this is redundant but I am coming in late on this discussion.

Are you saying this:

          ----/\/\/\/\/\--------/\/\/\/\/\----------------------
    0     50    0     50    0
    0           0           0
  0|0         0|0         0|0
  0|0         0|0         0|0
    0           0           0
    0           0           0
          ----/\/\/\/\/\--------/\/\/\/\/\----------------------
                     50                        50

If this is right could you explain what the reason is for this?
