Sorry for lack of clarity. Comments pertain only to the use of those particular
phrases. I personally think examples are very useful, so long as they are not
used excessively and really add to the understanding of the topic. Thanks for
catching me.

(Once again, my corporate disclaimer applies. These are still MY opinions.)
ALSO -- just wanted to put in my 2 cents about examples, after seeing this
comment from Tom:
> I personally don't like to "waste" an inordinate amount of space on "for
> examples" or "that is", but that is only a personal preference.
Maybe I didn't interpret Tom's comment correctly, but it surprised me
enough to want to mention that we've found users REALLY LIKE examples.
