Thanks for correcting me. I guess when AT's started closing the gap on MT's on the FE numbers it wasn't actually an improvement in the AT technology as much as manufacturers gearing MT's more aggressively.

Thanks for posting such definitive information, it's stuff like that which helps out everyone interested in better FE.
