Thanks guys!
Riverboat, I'm not sure if you meant that you saw a post from me on the fb page, but it wasn't me. Just posted it in here.
Thanks for the info!
Raq, thanks also, and thanks for finding and posting the Dave posts! I guess while I'm at it I'll thank dave for writing those posts.
Thanks too everyone who chimed in! 
So, I cleaned everything while leaving the atty still attached to the top cap.... still hot button. Removed, cleaned contacts and reconnected the atty, not so tightly, as it was down pretty tight. And... Hot button gone! The contacts for the atty and the ELA were spotless, so I'm confident the hot button was due to the atty being screwed on too tight. Thanks again everyone!
For anyone who cares, it seems the flat button for the ELA will be available in a satin and polished finish!
