Hi Stas, Sorry for the follow up but I only noticed this after I woke up this morning.
Amusing irony! In this instance, I tried to make a technical argument about language and you picked up the wrong end of the stick and blew up out of proportion because I didn't choose words that make clear me purpose. If I can get a smile out of Internals, I just gotta take it. That's all. I have to concentrate on other things today.
