I don't want to be a PITA, but is there any particular reason you are
refusing to use the article "a" even after repeated suggestions to use
it? (Also, I suggested to say what we are converting into here.)

You see, before my first response in this thread I thought: "Doing this
myself would be less work than replying and explaining things, but I'll
try to be nice."

Now, this is v4, I've even provided complete sentences ready for copy &

than doing it myself. I'm sorry but I can't afford to spend even more
time on this.
