Yeah, exactly.  Let me know if you ever find that again.

Also, the other one I was looking for was a list of plausible pairs of 
detrimental mutations that when combined gives you and advantage, so as to 
give counter-examples to the "all mutations must lead to less fitness" 
arguments.  I tried to reconstruct some from memory and imagination, but 
none of mine were even close to as convincing as the ones I found.
