Thanks for sharing your story and view. On a side note, your language is superb. Do you write as career / hobby?

Heh, thanks! No but my girlfriend hates that I don't. I grew up reading books that my other (not crappy) older brother did and his influence greatly impacted my interest in science and language.

One brother is a psychopath, the other is literally the type of scientist that is changing the world. I've considered trying at writing some once I finish cleaning up my life from the people I've had to excise.

For what it's worth, I just have spent my life having to constantly revise how I communicate and sometimes it helps. Usually it just annoys people if they aren't really interested.

It is a joy to accurately communicate with people who care you. It is also a joy to annoy others who don't.

Please write. Please write.
