I already said, I thought the question was wrongly wording.
>>> ... and the discussion of it on this thread is purely a matter of decree?
Not at all. Just so happens, your post is #450. My first post was #17. Aside from dealing with one tortured FReeper, if I didn't respect the opinion of others I wouldn't have stayed around for this long. I know some folks believe FR threads are immortal and never end. I don't hold that opinion. LOL
correction: ".... was wrongly worded."
Did you answer the question as it was worded, or as you think it should have been worded? It seems you're coming up with a different answer than almost everyone else because you're answering a different question than they are.
