No, Mark, I am not exasperated by this. I hope never in my life I will get exasperated just for an issue like this. I tried just to put in words my thoughts, maybe too abstract as you say, precisely because I cannot show an example, not being programmer myself. I hope that you are not also exasperated with me. We are both grown up people with somewhat more important thing to worry about. I propose to kill all this issue right here.
