Hey, you said you were disappointed, so I tried to say what you wanted
to hear.  Didn't actually think about it.

OK, OK, I'm over analysing (1) here, but... What I meant was that my
append seemed to have sunk without a trace. I of COURSE always expect
that everyone immediately applauds my ideas as brilliant, terrifically
on topic, and well timed(2)(3), but in this case, I did not get the
usual adulation. Heck, I didn't get even a lukewarm "yes, but", or even
one single "what a lame idea"(4).

Helps?

1 - but hey, Joshua D. is currently very very stressed out(5) about
whether it is Y-Wing or Y-wing, so it's not like I'm the one who's the
deepest off the deep end here, OK?

2 - it's my due, after all.

3 - Insert usual JN or TomMcD grovel here.

4 - from a misguided person, of course.

5 - I'm sure HE'LL say he's just being precise but my take is a little
different. :-) I'm GLAD he and Todd stress out about it though, our DB
is much more accurate because of the AR tendencies a lot of us evidence.
