The levels of discussion are equally hard for me to 'get'. Some are
meant for the likes of 'us', and some simply are not. The technical
language of a speciality makes it pretty arcane to us 'lesser
educates', and properly so!!

I absolutely qualify to be heaped up into the same categorical pile in
which you describe yourself, and from the sounds of responses to your
post, there be a lot of 'us'.

'Tis a tad intimidating, eh? I just try to leave my ego at the door,
stick to the truth as best as I am given it, and never be afraid of
being wrong and looking bad.
I hope you post in confidence.
