| Apr 9, 2016 at 11:44 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | @GerryMyerson Ordinarily I do just that, and in fact I did that before with a very similar post (which OP appreciated); see below the accepted answer. But then when people began making comments on his comment and OP was unable to respond, he/she flagged to explain so. In view of this and Sebastian's comment, I'm going to keep this answer, at least temporarily. | |

| Apr 8, 2016 at 17:41 | comment | added | Sebastian Goette | @ToddTrimble At least marh_g followed the advice given in this meta answer. And imho, this "answer" is interesting enough not to be deleted immediately. | |
| Apr 8, 2016 at 17:01 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | Dear fellow MO users: the author of this post doesn't have the rep to make comments in response to comments under someone else's post, but would like to do so. I propose that we keep this "answer" for a while and then convert the kit and caboodle over to comments once a bit of rep has accrued. I expect this user can make further useful comments and contributions, but his/her hands are tied at the moment. | |
