I didn't take it as an insult, but more as friendly advice. I am guilty as charged for over explaining.

But I hope no one reads my comments in this thread as encouragement to be more academic.

My intention in this thread is to encourage folks not to write things that they would not say in front of their pastor, priest, or rabbi. I'm advocating for more kindness and respect. Did not someone important once say, "Anyone who says 'You fool!' will be in danger of the fires of hell."
