   See we can not say that, as the ISO standard also had "+" as optional, until   
   it was revised in 2004. Both our FTSC standard and the ISO standard were the   
   same. Obviously someone out there did not understand if no "-" minus sign is   
   included then assume positive. I know it is hard to understand ... but like   
   accounting, we only denote negative, positive is assumed.
