For gosh sakes, just upgrade to LR5. 1) It?s free. 2) I clearly remember 
being happy that I upgraded but don?t remember which added feature pleased 
me so much. 

Perhaps it?s the filter which provides an elliptical area of adjustable form 
factor and orientation and which can be set to include what?s covered (how I 
use it) or to exclude same. Then you can fiddle any and all sliders to 
modify that area. It?s the equivalent of B&W dodging and burning. Very easy 
to use. The ?brush? that is supposed to be used for the same purposes is an 
alternative that I?ve never had any success with.

Question authority and the authorities will question you.
