Oct 4, 2010 at 20:40 comment added Pete L. Clark @Mark: I owe you my apologies then -- I didn't expect that anyone would take my framing story so seriously. Note that I never said that I knew the answer!
Oct 4, 2010 at 19:25 comment added user6976 @Pete: because you know the answer and seem to ask for some information satisfying artificial restrictions. It is not clear why these restrictions are imposed, so the question seems really random. A similarly strange question would be: give me a definition of parahoric subgroups which does not involve letters "j, r, s", but involves letters "o, u, q". Perhaps you can reword the question so that it sounds less strange.
