First time for everything? You refer, of course, to my ‘reading problem’. I thought ‘reading problems’ were more or less a permanent problem, at least without expert coaching. Of course, it can manifest when below average writing has to be dealt with. Of course, that wouldn’t apply to you. I am indeed fortunate to have run into you.
John21652;7712994:
True enough. I only hope your self awareness has improved somewhat since that dance and your riches haven’t diminished.
John21652;7712994:
Well, I’ll be…Thank you for pointing that out to me. Now I see the problem. You see, I was always taught to read from left to right. I’ll work on the problem, of course.
John21652;7712994:
Oh, they were kindly supplied by CAF. I don’t think CAF would be at all pleased to have you call them ‘beady’ and ‘little’. I see you have also been taught to read from left to right. If you had followed your own teachings, you’d also have glanced to the top right and been able to work out that an American spellcheck is of no use to me whatsoever.

*]Strange, I don’t think I wrote about fence posts, so we can rule them out. And if I can’t tell the difference between a fence post and a Fibonaccii number, than I have truly excelled all expectations by managing to write of it and not a fence post.
*]Oh, but I do know! Your assumption fails. See top right corner.
*]Oh my, such whopping assumptions you make! For a man supposedly involved in science, that’s not only unbecoming, it’s dangerous for the rest of us.
True, to a point. It also depends greatly on how you define ‘ignorant’. Some people have a whole lot of “different knowledge” and I usually find the ignorant are to be found amongst those who show intolerance for the "knowledge’ that is different. It shows up their own ignorance. It should be. I’ll guide you gently, as a true friend should. I don’t want you inadvertently siting on a fence post, like a turtle.
Cheers.
My relationship with you is coming along better than most. I see that you have *almost *learned how to spell Fibonacci, an Italian name which ought to spell-check the same in Brit and American English. Sorry, but I don’t compensate for Aussies. It is impossible. The cool ones would not stand for it, and you really would not either. At the rate you’re coming along, I’ll wager a pound of 'roo meat that you’ll have it nailed before three more posts on the subject.
Then you can explain in your own words to the hundreds of CAF readers who are wondering, exactly what Fibonacci numbers are, and their relationship to biological life forms (which, IMO, are not coincidental).
Although I hate to admit it, I appreciate a man who doesn’t pass up a good straight line. You’d be even more fun if you could grow a mustache and learn to appreciate their hazards. Until then you’ll manage to get by with just boogers, like other Australians.
A couple of years ago a friend emailed the turtle/fence post joke, and as I recall it was pretty funny. But now that I’m in my dotage I’ve forgotten it. Help?
What do you mean?
. Clearly, someone who has the kind of skepticism demonstrated by the issues raised herein isn’t going to be convinced through a few incantations. Well played, well played.
