As I am randomly likely to delete anonymous comments, please use a handle. Comments on older posts go into moderation; sorry if there are delays in hoisting your comment from the moderation pool. Note also that, due to quirks in Blogger's coding, comments appear date-stamped prior to the original post. Either that or I have remarkably prescient readers.
