I am the gentleman in question.  I did not intend to convey the impression that
I thought Fernando should not be posting and I have already replied to Fernando
on CCC, using phraseology/tone that I perhaps should have used in the first
place.

I was trying to convey the idea that while Fernando expresses heated & vocal
exasperation at the programmers who cannot seem to see what to him is obvious,
that the programmers amongst us might feel the same exasperation at him for
trying to convey ideas that are too abstract to be of use in the real world.
