Actually, I was not thinking of you in the least. But you make one of the points I tried to make. Actually you made a couple of them.



First the reality, if your a newbie, even a really good one, there is no possible way for someone, anyone with lots of experience to not talk down to you. That is, if they're offering something you don't know, or are not aware of as talking down. Or offering you something that's commonplace and everyday, but new to you.



If I beat around the bush, most likely that is of little value, and after doing that ten thousand times, it is almost always a waste of time.

An example to help you understand, If you as a newbie, took a college course, offered by a PHD, Well, that's not going to happen, you will have to take and pass a whole lot of prerequisite classes first. Or, the lower level courses are taught by Student teachers or beginner teachers. One of the reasons is, you can relate better to someone close to your experience level. Are there some newbie students that would take the advanced class and do well, yes, but very few. The very special ones. The ones that come to learn and not worry about clutter.

here, there is no such separation. You get to ask questions to those with lots of experience. This is real life, so its your task to ask the right questions, and keep asking the right questions until you understand the answers and solve whatever problem you have. Again, its your task to get past the clutter. And in this case, the clutter is how its presented to you and all the folks around that do not care about learning or the animals and do not want anyone else to succeed past their level of understanding. Then it becomes your choice, you can ignore the clutter, get past the clutter or become the clutter, its your choice. End part 1
