Gee, I can't understand why my non-abrasive comment would get returned with
a [1b], especially since I would think that mathematical notation would
supercede any programming syntax (if you're being picky that is), and
further wouldn't indicate that I was full of crap.  I wasn't trying to be
insulting to anyone.  Actually, I meant that to be a very lighthearted
attempt at participation.

Also, as was pointed out, the word "inclusive" I used is redundant but I was
typing it as I would speak it.

I'm going to a darkened room to practice my social skills.
