RE: Well.... we weren't arrested....

Frank,

Why?

Given that the resistor only serves to dump current, I'd assume that I
could have several LEDs in parallel with each other, then a resistor
between that array and the -ve rail.

Why won't this work?

Hi Mark
If your wiring in parallel you must use a resistor for each led
