Yes, I know it is, Steve, but if I'd mentioned it, it would have just added more confusion to a post that was difficult to understand already--

P.S. If you want to learn to "read" chords, the easiest thing is to just get a bit of music ledger paper and write out a major chord and a minor triad in each of the basic inversions so you know what the shapes look like--then when you see them in music you'll recognize them, and you can tell what which chord it is by simply reading the chord note--
