It was myself who sent in the reference to AN910 a few days ago,
which is unclear at best when describing the need for multiple
voltage verification.

I am not as well educated as many of you here, and would certainly
not challenge anyones assertions, but I do think it wise to consider:

An Application Note from Microchip may not be a solid basis for making
sound technical decisions. There was another App Note in the past that
advocated connecting live AC voltage to an input, with only a high R
resistor and an assumption that the built-in protection diodes would
make it "OK".

I guess what I'm saying is that I'd trust the opinions of many people
on this list over the assertions of any single Microchip AN.

Just my opinion, of course. :-)
