Dear Carrol,

Why are you being so picky? Look, we the non-native speakers are
not as good as you are in this bloody language, O.K.? To some of
us, including myself, there is not much difference between
necessity, certainty and the like.

By the way, I understand you quite well:

Please accept my apologies Chris because of my unnecessarily
critical words about your statements regarding strange
attractors. In reality, I knew what you meant perfectly.

Best,
Sabri
