You know, I scanned this and realised that it did, in fact, say something I
didn't intend. I didn't mean to imply that the person who wrote "Focus on
this:," etc. was a moron, which could easily have been inferred from context
and what people apparently think I'm feeling.
I apologize for any insult here, even though it certainly wasn't my original
intent; I was saying "If I wasn't intending to help, I'd have simply
flamed," and the way I wrote it came out as sounding like "I should have
just called you a moron instead."
