could it run before the "parser" phase instead of after?

[SethTisue]

at Scala Bay last night I asserted that I'd tried it and it didn't work, but afterwards I started wondering if that was a false memory. did I really try it?

I should try it (again?) and see what happens, and perhaps change or comment the code depending on result

rejected!
