He could doubtless say more on this specific question if he wanted, but I agree with coleopterist that the comment is a perfectly adequate answer here. Crumbs off John's table are often better than a full plate somewhere else (erk! - I don't want to get a reputation for brown-nosing here! :) | |

| Jul 31, 2012 at 14:59 | comment | added | Paola | just to understand a bit better. Why did you post John Lawler's answer as community wiki? Shouldn't he have posted his own answer himself? Did you do it to prevent other people from copying the same answer and getting credit from it? | |
