Well, frequently when people discuss ideas on this list, others discuss
and provide further ideas to try help to find a working solution, rather
than throw every roadblock they can think of (though roadblocks are
indeed thrown now and then).  If I've taken a long time to find a
working solution, maybe it's because I have no shoulders of giants to
stand on, and I'm a pretty short guy, so I need to build me a ladder.
