My apologies - the original thread was *not* the source of the "is
this a joke?" comment. That appeared somewhere else, and I can't
recall exactly where. The original post was well-explained and a
sensible question, which pretty much followed all of the rules I
covered above (although it was still about something a year old, which
might have been nice to note in the post). My apologies to Dima for
misrepresenting what he said.
Just goes to show, that even when going on about "do your research", I
failed to do so myself :-( I suppose that emphasises the point that we
all make mistakes, so let's try to remember that when discussing rules
of conduct...
