I must admit I didn't notice that he changed the word from "asked" to
"answered".

Now that I've noticed, I'm not sure I've ever seen FAQ expanded
to "Frequently Answered Questions" rather than "Frequently Asked
Questions", and I still have no idea what Michael is getting at.
Is he suggesting that Eric should have done something other than
cite the FAQ?

Sorry if I'm being dense.
