Such prejudice. Tut tut. But then again, that was abundantly clear
before. An one-track mind can be a powerful tool, but like any useful
tool it can be abused to do needless harm. I wish you'd stop doing that.

Hmm salient.. <lookup> not sticking out, as in.. no handle on. Ah, I
get it. <smirk> You really don't know how to counter this. <snicker> Ah
well, not everybody can stand up to their own faillures. Can't blame you
for that I guess. It really is hard on you if it isn't Turing complete,
isn't it? <grin>


But seriously, if I wasn't sure you didn't want to know, I'd explain
that for someone smart enough learn how to program well in various
computer languages, it is doable to learn how to get this right. It is
indeed possible to make clear to people they're on the wrong track or
that their idea won't fly without resorting to insult. With about the
same effort as looking up a creative ailment in your dictionary.
