Mostly accurate. I criticized you for offering theory to someone
wanting practice. My addition here still falls within the boundaries
of practice. Also, I've NEVER criticized you for the verbosity of your
responses. I've criticized you and SEVERAL others for the QUANTITY of
responses to a thread, and for refusing to let a thread die. You're
not the worst offender here for that, although you're the most
infamous for it. War & peace is a shorter read than some of the recent
threads on the list (general statement of fact. not directed at you.
don't get worked up.)

Side note -

<flame suit on> Didn't you request to be removed from posting to the
list to avoid this sort of hostility? How's that working out for ya?
:-P
