LOL @Treecutter, I'm not here to denigrate you. Normally we do that just fine on our own.
You might have been here longer than me, I have no idea, but you don't seem familiar with forum protocol.
You are who you are, but we can always choose to be otherwise to facilitate understanding.
You seem to be academically trained in some respects. That's fine but the attitude that is usually handed from Prof to Student is not conducive to friendly communication. You sound aloof and dispassionate in your writing. People pick up on that.
I was guilty of the exact same thing. It takes time.
