neutral  Sandra & Kenneth Grossman: This answer has already been proposed. Even if you reached this conclusion independently, re-posting it (with a higher confidence level) is a debatable issue//...
23 mins
  -> The documentation says somewhere that it's okay to post the same answer if one has a different basis. In this case, my answer is different in that it is the only one (not one of three), I based it on context given by the asker, & I gave certain sources.
neutral  Lingopro: It's still the same answer as already proposed and your action only reinforces the already given suggestion. This is foul play between peers.
1 hr
  -> See discussion. The site's administration has no objection and, as I note, there was good reason for reposting.
