Off topic...
Rob's question is so necessary in so many disciplines, and one that we, many
times, fail to ask. So often, our customers / users come to us with a
"solution" instead of a "problem", and we fail to recognize it as such, or
simply accept the necessity of what they have requested. So many times, what
we really should do is take a step back from what they've asked for, and ask
them what they're really attempting to accomplish.
This isn't to say that the requestor in this case doesn't actually need the
indexed stem... It's just a life observation for everyone to ponder today...
