Mea culpa; that's exactly what I did.
There was nothing in the response that was private or proprietary, and I
figured that since it was also the right answer it was probably worth
ccing it to the list (and therefore the archives) for anyone in the
future with a similar issue.
It was, however, probably technically unethical, and Paul may feel free
to slap me with a wet kipper at his leisure.
