No, Noah, I don't intend to explain anything to you.  Why don't you get a
life?  You seem to think you know more about everything than anyone else, so
just keep yourself company - talk to yourself, then you'll know everything
is okay.  That will leave the rest of us very relieved!
Don't even bother to reply to me, your time will be wasted because I have no
intention of answering anything you have to say.  I have NEVER posted
anything in anger this way before, but thanks to you, my ire is up, and I
don't like the feeling.
