In article , Harold and Susan Vordos says...

Very gentlemanly of you to offer your apology. Ignoramus12712 is one of
the more polite people on the board and has shown very nice manners and
appreciates all concepts offered.

Indeed. I think the problem is, the issue being discussed
is reasonably complicated so that it requires a first-principles
approach.

This means asking specific questions that make no assumptions
at all. Unfortunately this sometimes makes the question asker seem
totally retarded.

I understand this effect well because I do it a lot at work.

Sometimes the only way to "get to the bottom of it" is to
look like a total retard. :^)
