We did it for the stupid syntax highlighting thing... and this

I've talked before about XML error messages. I'd actually

Hi,
I have been staring at this message so long, I have clearly stopped
actually reading it, hence outside assistance needed.
Can someone please explain to me (probably in words of one syllable
