 Lance, this is exactly the way I think a hide should occur.  This was a long long piece and you point to the relevant line which I felt uncompelled to search tru to find.

Getting to the point will make it ezsier with and for others who get fummed over our censorings.

And as with Troy, i would have said wait, until i saw the exact reason.
