You certainly have a lot of time on your hands wanting to bicker over how I wrote things.
I'm going to respond to this because it is a very illustrative moment for everyone reading and participating. YES, isn't it so annoying when people jump all over us for using the wrong word, or nit picking that we didn't explain something completely, or were just a little bit wrong, or used a common short hand when a full explanation would have taken twice as long to type, etc., etc.?
Well, here's the thing: When someone's asking about the law, or about how a federal enforcement agency works, or how nit-picky things like zoning regulations affect home businesses, there is NO POINT in writing if you aren't going to be BOORISHLY precise. ANNOYINGLY exact. PEDANTICALLY clear. That trips people up because we all want to be conversational and write like we speak -- in generalities, and easy, abbreviated, and a "
y'all know what I meant..." relaxed way.
But the people we're speaking to on an online forum aren't your next door neighbors, they don't "know what y'all meant" and they might actually need the
details that you're leaving out of the conversation. Or that you don't know for sure, yourself.
We all complain about all the "FUD" (fear, uncertainty, and doubt), and all the stupid misinformation morons spew all over the "Errornet." But if you answer a question imprecisely or sloppily, or you toss out what you THINK you thought you knew but didn't go check up on, you're just as guilty as those other morons!
And if you're corrected, say "Thank You." Don't act petulant and whine. Man up and thank the person who just fixed your error.
