My husband keeps asking what I'm chuckling or laughing at. He, too appreciates your sense of humor. Your suggestions are not only good ones but if followed would save the submitter or validator space in the short synopsis and he/she (I'm afraid to write "they" for fear you'll correct me, Guido, after my recent comments -- but I truly meant to compliment you on your long but not run-on sentence) wouldn't have to worry about the submission being rejected and having to be re-submitted.
