Practical: whatever you change, write down the date and the reason.

This answered a question I did not know how to ask.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. Worth answering the question that was asked rather than the one behind it. The narrow version usually has an answer; the broad version usually does not, and answering the broad one is how a thread stops being useful.

Adding a me-too, because a thread of one person's experience is not much use. I had assumed I was the exception until I read this.

Coming at Dr.GastroMayo’s question from a different direction. It helps to say which part of this you are uncertain about. A precise question gets a precise answer; a general one gets everybody’s favourite anecdote.

Reporting back.

Resolved, and the thing that resolved it was the least interesting suggestion in the thread. Writing that down for the next person who wants the interesting answer.
