Dick, you got a lot of helpful feedback on your question - yet no response
from you.

Don't you think a simple "thank you" would be in order?

I'm glad to see that others feel the same way I do about that. I
often respond to questions, and end up with no idea if my response was
helpful or not. "Thank yous" are nice, but feedback even without a
thank-you would also be welcome, just to know that we're not talking
into the wind. Also, an "I solved the problem (thus-and-such way)" is
helpful: we then know we don't have to write any more, and maybe we
learn another way to solve such a problem, or place to get such parts.
Sometimes the discussion is worthwhile even without the OP's
response, but I'd always like to see _something_ back from the OP.

Welcome to bash me unmercifully if I fail to follow up like that on
any question I post!

Cheers,
Tom
