John, I think you're right in pointing out that there is no such thing as a "magic" POST that would clear-up all issues. Maybe there's another way besides a post, but without knowing the possible limitations of the forum framework, I don't know what exactly to suggest.
Trrentschler, again not rules, suggestions. The difference: if you break rules there may be consequences. Ignoring suggestions mostly results in annoying people who think the suggestion's recipient lacks common sense or social skills. I'm not asking what I should do here on the forum, I'm trying to make it easier for those who might be interested in knowing what is generally accepted.
