  Aw for ****s sake.  Even Rod Speed could argue and be technically
correct at 
the same time.  You're so far a lost cause it's not funny anymore.  Sadly
for 
you, the above quote properly decyphered proves your statement wrong.

  If anyone wants a detailed technical explanation of what happens, I'm
quite 
happy to let them know.

  You on the other hand are incapable of understanding even the basics,
let 
alone the half-arsed half-truth double-talk you quoted.
