FWIW, Mr. Haber, I don't consider your message in response to mine to
be an abomination, or in any way not understandable.  I think I
understood your message very well.  I'm sorry and consider it
regretful that you consider text you yourself wrote to be an
abomination; I'm not sure what else to say concerning that.

Also FWIW, I didn't make my original message intentionally unreadable
(as least in my own estimation), nor do I myself find it unreadable.
I can understand however that others might not find it the same way,
for whatever reason.  I respect that.

Did you look at the followup I posted to my original message (assuming
you yourself are willing to interact with AI generated content, as it
was clearly announced to be at the beginning of the followup to my
original message) that was created by Google GMail (Clippy!) from the
message I originally posted, as an improvement (or, so says Google
GMail) to that message?  If you did look at it, did you find it any
more readable than the original message?  As the person who wrote the
original message, I find Clippy's purported improvement of it to be
not unreasonable; there's perhaps some subtle points in the original
that were not incorporated in the summary / improvement, but overall
it's a fair and reasonably complete summary IMO.  If you did not look
at it, and again if you are willing to engage with AI generated
content in the first place, perhaps you might wish to do so?  You
might find it (more) comprehensible?

Thanks for your response to me, and for whatever time (if any) you
choose to expend in reading my response to you in return.  Be well,
take care, do good things.


Joseph
