> It's not my fault that I fail to understand what you say. You clearly employ verbosity as a means of trying to disguise the fact that what you say makes no sense.

Really? My first post in this thread was one sentence and the next two were two sentences each. The next was five but it repeated one of the earlier sentences. Sensing that such verbosity wasn't helping, my next several posts were one or two sentences each. My eighth post in this thread was fairly verbose, I admit, but I do believe that most people will see that it's just a synopsis of the thread (since you seemed to have lost the plot), and not "a means of trying to disguise the fact that what you say makes no sense."
