Thanks Brian, Axel & Ian for your very thorough treatment of my post.
When I first read about golang interfaces, I was impressed with how elegant and powerful they are, so it's very disappointing that my first opportunity at leveraging them was such a fail! Your explanations did a remarkable job of making proper usage obvious. I appreciate you taking the time.
