AdeptCharge, I am actually kinda lost as to why your posts are so dense, and yet say next to nothing. Like, all of them are that way. Every time I get on this site I imagine myself sitting at a table with this group of guys having a discussion. Try to put yourself in that spot and I hope you would see how strange this looks to the rest of us. Judging by your tone, it seems to me like you are typing as though you are looking down your nose at the rest of us. The internet is no place to be talking in such a manner, as you must assume that you are among equals. You can simply say "a reflection in a fun house mirror" instead of "a virtual image which is distorted due to the object, you that is, being reflected by a convoluted non-planar surface,(
direct quote)" and we wouldn't think of you as any dumber than the rest of us. Using large words and writing paragraphs where most of us would use no more than a couple sentences isn't fooling anybody, and it's giving me the feeling you are hiding behind them. I will not guess at the reason.
That being said, if you are really as bright as you are trying to act through your vocabulary, there are other ways to show it than by doing this.
I will not reply to your responses to this post, I have been following your posts, AC, and I will make like Sailor Steve and just stay quiet from now on, having said what I wanted to say and nothing more.
