If you have other questions, you only have to post them, each question in a new thread.
If you use the same screen-name all the time like most people do, we get to know you and it is easier to explain knowing what you know, or what your issues are.
Also, we have many teachers who are able to answer your questions, so unless it is a follow-up, do not address to a specific teacher. This way, you will get your answers faster.
Follow-ups are best addressed as a reply to the original thread, exactly like what you did. It gives other teachers the context to better help you. If the original teacher is not available, or does not see the reply, all information will be available to whoever is ready to help you.
