Like the old pick a paragraph and spin it, then go ahead.



But this is what I said,

While many things can be used successfully, some like spotlites tend to be more successful at burning holes in monitors.



Remember, you are trying to help the people with the least understanding of husbandry, not keepers who are already successful and have a good understanding of the use of lites.



I am sure, I could use spotlites(and I have) but there are many safer and more successful bulbs out there.



I bow my head and say, accidents happen when unexpected, those who do not know what to expect, have many accidents. Respectfully FR

How that reads is,



The title, "Neal, your treading on dangerous ground", is not a threat, its either an alarm or a warning. The post or subject is suppose to define the title. If I yelled at you, NEAL your threading on dangerous ground, your responce should be to look at the ground and see whats dangerous about it. It should not be, Frank are you threatening me. Indeed you should look down at the subject of the post.



The first paragraph saidWhile many things can be used successfully, some like spotlites tend to be more successful at burning holes in monitors. This is simple, it means exactly how it reads, Possibly I should have said, types of lites, instead of things.



The next paragraph, clarifies the first, it defines whom it concerns, it said, Remember, you are trying to help the people with the least understanding of husbandry, not keepers who are already successful and have a good understanding of the use of lites.It does not mention you as anything, newbie or other. Only who may be recieving your advice.



The third paragraph, said; I am sure, I could use spotlites(and I have) but there are many safer and more successful bulbs out there. This explains that spotlites could be used successfully(as you have said, you have), it did not mention if I were an expert or if you were. It said, there are safer and more successful bulbs out there, which you fail to mention. Maybe you should have asked what those are and how they are used.



The last paragraph, said; I bow my head and say, accidents happen when unexpected, those who do not know what to expect, have many accidents. This little saying again does't mention you as anything or suggest that I am anything. Only that accidents happen when not expected, kinda what defines them as accidents. If you expected them, they could not be considered accidents. So, sir, how did I threaten you? Thanks FR



I guess, I have uncovered another spin doctor. You see, I can play the paragraph game as well. FR
