Are you saying you were seriously asking a question? Read what you
wrote. The tone certainly seems belittling from here. In any case,
your post was uninformed and non-productive.

I'm not attempting to "[inject] a previously non-existent invective".
I am educated; I shared part of said education with you above.
If you think my post was a flame, your skin thickness may be
insufficient for this list. I would classify your original post as
much closer to flame-material than my reply (hint: my reply included
useful information). You saying "i'm not interested in flaming" seems
a little less than sincere to me.
Good day.
