Looks like you are misunderstanding Dscho's point: When you have two conflicts, the first with stages 1 and 2, the second with stages 2 and 3, then the 2s occur lumped together when the 4 lines are printed in a row, and that is the cue to the parser where the new conflict begins. Dscho did not mean that all N 2s of should be listed together. -- Hannes
