It is so frustratingly silly. Found the original message...
It "suddenly" occurred to me, Dan, that you may have a good and solid
excuse to buy into DFA 100/2.8 Macro WR lens and get yourself a proper
outdoor macro kit in terms of WR.
Though it is not cheap.
But again, my vote would be for D-FA 50/2.8 macro - seems like it has
many things from many worlds (aperture ring, FF coverage - can be used
on film, very good image quality both in non-macro range, etc)...

I want a versatile macro lens for my K-r, that would be suitable when
eventually I upgrade to a K-5 series or whatever comes along. Without
getting too exotic or pricey, I would like fairly wide max aperture
and good bokeh. I would use it mostly to shoot flowers, butterflies
and the like. If it could take decent images outside the macro range
as well, that would be a plus.
What are others using? What moderately price lens would you recommend>
