Hi,

I wrote that FAQ entry.. Can you tell me how you got the idea that it 
says/meant "append" the AS clause? Or at least give me ideas how to word 
it so that people won't get that impression? I'm fairly sure thats not 
what it says.. what you have done is exactly what was meant (though in 
typnig it up you seem to have forgotten the backslash).
