And I'm sorry I sniped at you. Perhaps it could have been handled
better; sorry for that. I try to assume the best in people. I give
them what I think they need. If I've over-estimated, it's up to them
to tell me and then I'll be happy to throttle back. The alternative,
assuming everyone's a moron, is distasteful to me and I don't enjoy
starting out talking down, or talking baby talk; it's insulting to
you. So I give what I think is the answer you need. It's up to you
to say it wasn't enough.
Ideally, eventually, everyone learns something, right?
