Well I really don't mean to offend, I just really want to make myself clear. I tend to over-explain pretty much everything I say, I know, but that's because in the past I have had a lot, a LOT, of confusion over what I meant. I do believe you may even remember some pretty heated arguments based solely on a total misunderstanding of what I'm talking about.
Really, don't take it as me "talking down" to you. I just want to make sure no one assumes I'm saying something else.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
