Perhaps you should have taken the classes about how to
write clearly?
Perhaps. Remember that English is not my native language.
Complexity has not been the issue.
Clarity is the issue. Complexity often obfuscates.
Well, if I seem unclear, just ask *me* to clarify. Because your
rewrites haven't added clarity so far.
There's a story, perhaps apocryphal, about an apology
from a well known author: "I'm sorry this is so long,
I didn't have time to make it short."
Yes, I certainly lacked the time. :-)
WBR, Sergei
