I can answer the question of your vision myself?  I asked you to share your 
vision, in simplest terms, without ambiguity, through a few examples.  Instead 
you answer with more obfuscation.  I can only think, after a certain point, 
that you don't really have a vision what you're after.  And don't say I didn't 
ask or that I'm in need of a teacher to tell me what to think or how to behave. 
 SImple questions deserve simple answers.
