I just took a glance at your blog post, and it's reasonably clear now.
(Though I tend to try to avoid making substantive edits to blog posts
once they've been published and read; a codicil, or at very least an
italicized comment saying "(Edit: Actually, blah blah blah.)", is
clearer. Of course, trivial edits like typos can be corrected - nobody
would be bothered by those unexpectedly changing.) Posts to the
newsgroup/mailing list basically can't be edited, so the normal way to
acknowledge an error or correction is simply a follow-up post.
