Too logical, there has to be a more twisted reason...

  Thank you, Dean.  I know you're one of those with NOT "faded memories"....
      FYI - although I was NEVER able to really, truly, authenticate the reason for the 2M x 2M rule, one can find a very real, and plausible explanation, by investigating international metric housing design "standards"....
      One *could* discover that nearly ALL door frames in the known universe are at LEAST 2M of vertical opening.
      A thought to ponder....

    Bob,
    It is so good to hear some question the, "We always did it that way" that so often seems to be the reason we do things the way we do them.
    Regards,
        Dean P.
