What an incredibly unhelpful chap you are James.

I stongly suspect that Prof. Kell would have phoned a manufacturer if he had a 
reliable source, one of course who didn't ask his manager for the reference 
number.  Perhaps as you think it is such 'an easy number to get hold of' you 
would do the honours and provide it.
