"Indeed. I'm afraid I had both posts open in different browser tabs, and mistakenly chose the original post ID, not the "re-post" under a different title."

Why did you do this? The nodes you claim to have read and understand explain how linking works. If you were simply copying and pasting a node ID the title is automatically rendered. For some reason you choose one node ID and gave it the title of another?

Re: RFC: Things to ask yourself before posting a question on PerlMonks:

"It seemed that the (my) post post spoke for itself. As I felt, did the posting(s) I referenced therein."

Even your edited post has no substane at all to speak of.

I agree with jdporter, any time I've raised an issue with something you've said you've either behaived in a childish manner (lol response posts) or failed to address any of the points raised in a rational manner. Your reponse to feedback here was to mark the thread for reaping.

Update: despite our previous conversations on the topic, you're still not checking your posts, yet another example of a link not going where you think it does.
