Bo,
I fail to see how you are perceiving what I have written to be a withdrawl
or qualifications of my remarks.  I was stating them in simple language in
the (obviously unfounded) hope that you would be able to understand them.

Sorry, but I'm enjoying this too much.

Well, as I see it, you are saying "Oh, that's what you meant?  Well, I guess I
don't have a problem with that".  That sounds like agreement to me, possibly
you were using some other dialect in which your statement means something else?

: I didn't say I agree with you. It's just that your watered-down version

Ah, I see.  My summary, which I posted in plain, simple english so you would
have a faint glimmer of hope of understanding, is too plain and simple.  What
part would you like to have me elaborate, and how many syllables would you
prefer for me to set as the limit of the lengths of my words?

: Have you considered a remedial reading course?

Funny, I was just thinking of asking you the same thing.

Ah, the misguided do-gooder.  Perhaps the worst kind.
