I erased your context because I was annoyed that you refused to erase
anything in your message and instead quoted the entire message.  If you
wish your message to be clear, perhaps you should edit out the irrelevant
portions yourself first.

Yes, you are correct there.  Mea culpa.  I still think it would have
been clearer, though, if you'd done some judicious editing.

Cheers,
