Need I say again there was no such intent? To infer from a simple statement of similarity such intentions when none were explicitly nor (as far as I am concerned) implicitly made is confusing to me.
I shall apologise to the 'reasonable' people who made such a leap, as the conclusion drawn was incorrect.
How should I have worded my post? Is there something I missed in my choice of verbiage?
