Dear Justin,

Firstly, Thanks for your help. You said "You're going from the end of chain
B to the beginning of chain A, then back to B later on.  Also realize that
whatever "ABSG" or "BSG" is." How do you understand it? Where can I find
such an important theoretical information?

Thanks in advance
