Dmb,
PS glad to hear you don't consider evolutionary psychology to be a
discredited subject.
I learned something today. Thanks.

You'll have to decode all that coding stuff. I use shorthand for
brevity, not to offend, on the basis that we have a lot of dialogue
behind us already.
Because Krimel wrote:
I find your code talking offensive. Over use of punctuation and
ending sentences with some presumed inside knowledge, it is smug
pretentious drivel that require enormous effort to delete.

Krimel has a point, I think, although the code talk doesn't offend
me so much as it confuses me. I think it's not just me. It's simply
an objective, scientific fact that your style is clipped, cryptic
and equivocal. You make the reader work very hard and the pay off is
never worth it. Is it really so hard to write in complete sentences
and without presuming your reader knows arcane trivia like, for
example, that "EvoPsych" is a dirty word? You never did say who
thinks its dirty or why they think its dirty and I certainly don't
know what relevance that's supposed to have anyway. This is still
true now, even after you responded to my confusion with a further
elaboration. I mean, i just let it go for lack of enthusiasm but I
still have no idea what you were trying to say.
Just so you know. I wasn't pretending to not understanding. The code
talking really doesn't work and you should care about that if you
want to be understood. Aren't you supposed to be some kind of
communications consultant? Of all the people who should know
better... Jeez.
