FYI, David, English is not a programming language, it is a natural
language. In natural languages, communication is expected to be a
*cooperative* effort, with speakers making reasonable attempts to be
accurate, and listeners making reasonable attempts to resolve
inaccuracies.
"What is so hard to understand about ..." is not a reasonable attempt to
resolve inaccuracies. My long explanation _why_ this is nonsense was
such an attempt. You simply cut it away. For an "attempt to resolve
inaccuracies", that would count negatively.
Obviously, your expectations and mine do not match. I don't
care
which of us is being unreasonable,
Now that is very obvious.
let's just end this thread here.
It is likely that everything pertaining to the actual matter at hand has
been written already. The rest is in the hand of the reader.
