| You're right that the suggested modification to your code is incorrect.
| Sorry for that, this was not a deliberate insult, simply dumbness.

  Well, I'd rather have malice any day over incompetence and ignorance
  used as excuses -- you can at least do something about the malice.

  Your original code looks good, though.
