Sorry, chiwito, your punctuation in the earlier, original post (as shown above) looked like it was meant to be the full name, no? I was actually attempting to parody myself as a stickler with my response to your post, in order to needle you, because, like many posters that reacted purely in knee-jerk fashion to the absurd list in this thread, I don't think you had been following the discussion, really. But that kind of insider sarcasm is more often than not completely lost on internet posts, so one should refrain from it all together. Speaking of lost: Kuku, whose ignorAnce are you speaking off? :) My equation was: "Lack of understanding (as in ABSENCE of understanding) equals Ignorance --not misunderstanding. Though there was lots of misunderstanding here, too, and there STILL IS ! :o For some here, pettiness rather than "ignorence" seems to be bliss. I can happily accept the fact that there always will be folks here who can't wait to jump on a possible misunderstanding of mine, it just makes THEM look bad --even if it REALLY would be a misunderstanding, which I am certain I am not entirely innocent off, and never will be. After all, misunderstanding is human, only absence of understanding is ignorance.
