Time for a new throw line TM?

Thanks for the clarification on the name of the knot Gary I've been calling the unbraided VT a fench prussik for ages for some reason don't know why, the 6 wrap version is pretty much what I climb on all the time now, esp when on pulleys or FS.

Perhaps I'm not the only one who is confused about it? http://ozultimate.com/canyoning/knots/french_prusik/ this is what I tie using bee line with spliced eyes and what I see in the photo from Dan of Mark's set up above his hand ascender.
