The diagram is for a "ball type" Delta faucet, which is not what you
have. Spin the brass ring off with a pipe wrench or channellocks
(gently) and then pull the cartridge out. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE
WATER OFF, and let the water pressure out of hot and cold before you
do this, or you will get really wet, and might send parts flying as
you take it apart.
Here is a pictorial of what you need to do, but I still don't think
you need to take off the escutcheon.

Ooops. No. I just turned the handle to shut the water off.
I guess I better turn the water off at the main inlet huh?
I didn't think of that - but then - I didn't get to that part yet.
(It wouldn't have been my first disaster, mind you!).
Without you guys, I'd never have the courage to attempt these jobs!
Thanks for your help ...
I guess I'll try the channellocks on the brass part, twisting it counter
clockwise - to see if something happens.

Hi Joseph Meehan,
This advise sounds easy but in fact you can't buy the repair kit, at least
at the Home Depot I visited with pictures in my hand - until you positively
identify the faucet.
And, it turns out, you can't positively identify which repair kit to use
until you take apart the faucet (at least according to Home Depot).
Which brings us back to square one ... how to disassemble the Delta shower
faucet to repair a leak?

Hi John Grabowski,
You're the second person to recommend removing the chrome "escutcheon".
There are two problems with that - the first is that it's stuck on and I'm
scared of cutting it away - but - the second is that others here say we
don't have to remove that chrome escutcheon.
When I look at the diagram on the Delta site, I can't tell (I can't find
the instructions for taking the Delta faucet apart on the Delta web site).

Can you tell, from this diagram, whether I need to remove the escutcheon
next (which means cutting it away from the tile) or if I need to somehow
spin out the brass cylinder with pliars?

The real point is that what works for marathon runners
doesnt say a damned thing about what works best for
those that dont do anything like that much exercise.
> You will not need as many as a marathon runner, but you need them.
Nope, the human body is quite capable of doing fine on diets like the Atkins.
And other much more extreme diets like those crazy
africans that eat nothing but meat and blood, quite literally.

Nope, because the human body has evolved over
time to do well even with no carb intake at all.

You're just plain wrong on that and cant substantiate that
claim with any rigorous peer reviewed scientific study.
And it aint as if it hasnt been extensively studied either, most obviously with the Atkins Diet.

Feel free to check out scientific studies on any of the following
points:
1. Heart disease is one of the most common causes of death. Lack
of exercise is a risk factor for heart attacks.
2. Of those who do have a heart attack, those who get regular
exercise have better chances of surviving afterwards.
3. High blood pressure is a risk factor for a lot of things,
from heart attack and stroke to glaucoma. Regular
cardiovascular exercise works against high blood pressure.
4. Lack of exercise is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes.
5. Regular cardiovascular exercise increases your HDL ("good
cholesterol") and decreases your LDL ("bad cholesterol").
6. Weight training and other weight-bearing exercise increases
your bone density.
7. Exercise helps you get better sleep.
If you think this stuff isn't important for good health, then I
guess regular exercise isn't necessary. Or if you think the
above are not actually benefits of exercise, then regular
exercise isn't necessary in that case either.
