Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate your fast and frequent feedback, though sometimes your obsession for correctness gets in the way of a simple answer. I think it's fine to gently nudge people to ask well-formed questions, but my question was quite clear despite the semantic/syntactic mismatch. Nevertheless thank you for making me a better person.
