It's internet, you didn't, and don't worry about it. The subtlety of text is EASILY misconstrued. If one WANTED to, it is EASY to make text words have meanings other than meant by the writer of the text. Actually, there are those who would/will/do EXPLOIT that subtleness. They use THEIR dictionairies and they own interpretations and MORE THAN SUGGEST that THAT is the TRUE MEANING. Forget about the writer's thoughts. The writer of the text is OUT OF THE EQUATION. Opportunists of evil? Indeed. > My question could have been worded better. Thanks responding. > You make some good points.
