Hii -

I am now more confused... among other things the information presented at
the URL above says:

Authors should avoid putting two or more adjacent hyphens inside comments.

[ed.... but, they also say that the following comment is ok]

I must be missing something here.  ?

Thanks in advance.

Deb
