the op didn't seem to think so; i was merely pointing out the advantages
of a minimum example.  would people rather every list message included a
pointer to the various web pages about mwes?  (this could easily be
done, without reference to any web page written by me, which brock would
presumably not like.)

if people would prefer i stopped posting, again, i shall.

last time, jonathan fine got up a campaign against me.  jonathan, are
you listening? -- do you want to try again? -- if so, let me know, and
i'll retire from the list, again.

(note, i don't consider a mail, that says i misbehaved in 2005, as the
start of a campaign.  feel free to start one, yourself, if you so
desire.)
