My apologies if I misjudged where you were coming from, but you made
all pretense of coming from there in your post. As such, I do find
myself feeling somewhat ill-used: in essence you misrepresented
yourself in order to elicit responses.

In the future, you could identify similar queries as questions raised
on another thread that you wish addressed by someone who is not
participating in that thread, without having to "tip your hand" if you
don't want to, but making it clear to potential repliers what is going
on, to decide whether they want to wade in or not.

OK. I apologize if you feel ill-used. Amazingly enuf, I actually
assumed
everyone reading those first two statements would know immediately
where I was coming from. I think I was still in the mind-set of the
other thread. But looking over that first post I can see how I could
be misinterpreted.

Your suggestion was good. I should have been much clearer.
