Lightbulb enlightening

Part of being a good official is to admit when you are wrong. After reading the casebook play cited by Mr. Burns, I must do just that!
It says in black and white that you come back from the time-out and have a held whistle violation still in effect and if the shot is missed the player will shoot again.
I must also admit that this play is analogous to the inadvertant whistle and that if you keep the violation in effect after the whistle and time-out then you certain should do the same if you have a whistle and then no time-out.
Thanks to Mr. Burns and Mr. Rust for making me a better referee.
I must say though that I don't see how the rules committee came to that casebook interpretation of the rule as it is written. If one looks only at the rule book and not the case book, that free throw started and then ended. It would be nice if they would fix/make an exception to the rule.
SO do just the opposite of what I wrote earlier!
