[OSM-newbies] Overpass API to get all amenities?

[Tac Tacelosky]

Thanks, Richard.

I've put that into a union query, and now I'm getting all the ways and
nodes that are marked with as having an amenity.

But the ways can't be displayed without their associated notes, which are
often just points.  Is there a way to say "Any nodes marked with amenity,
plus any ways marked as amenity and their associated nodes".

Would that be using "recurse"?  I can't quite grasp the syntax.  Any
suggestions?

Thanks,

Tac
