See my other reply.  
hfchen is really agreeing with Jim but missed the fact, as Jim says, 
that the lack of symmetry (ie: Z11 != Z22 and/or Z12 != Z21) results in 
BOTH even and odd modes are present EVEN IF driven differentially or 
commonly.  The asymmetric topology converts one to the other partially.  
Pure mode requires symmetry!
