And as much as I do not appreciate being called a fool when you make no attempt to discern my reasoning, likewise, I do not appreciate passive aggressive questions whose intent is apparently to state my comment is worthless to you.
I’m sorry that I took the valuable 4 seconds it took to read the quote, and that it spawned this subthread where you have continued to complain about my posting of the comment. I’m sorry that it bothers you enough that you feel the need to indirectly call me a fool, and to indirectly say my comment is worthless.
When I initially saw it, the tone of the quote seemed to reveal a lack of assimilation of the insight mattnewport gave; to the extent that the quote is doing so in this context, such oversimplification does count as a (3rd) kind of foolishness. I do not, however, deem you a fool.
While I still don’t think the quote was helpful, I will remove the remark that implies you are a fool. And, as standard practice, I didn’t mod down any of your comments in this thread because I was involved in the thread’s argument.
So it didn’t say anything that the parent of your quotation comment hadn’t already said?
Yes. It’s almost as if I was merely supplying an interesting quote.

I apologize for giving you grief about the quote.

Please do not take offense.
