Oops, never mind that last posting of mine.  I should have checked
all my messages before responding, especially those from Doug W. or

Well, I might've but I didn't, not on this topic, which I didn't see till

-- was intertwined with "yo"; which might be the cause of this your
confusion. ;-)\  ... Now, *that* double determiner has a Shakespearean ring
to it.
