Not exactly. As I review it, I see that it has _two_ requests 
and one question. You answered the question last month.

Oops. Mea minima culpa. 

To be more precise: 

The response to the _second_ request should fit in one line of text. 
A response to the _first_ request would more likely take at least 
a paragraph. A response to the _first_ request that mentions 
ThinkpadR61-drb, might indicate misunderstanding of the first request. 

You are close to the epiphany 
(as long as you do not concentrate on having an epiphany).
