Keith:

In any given situation, many factors may come into play ...

A person may just be so damn ignorant he/she looks to be whamboozling,
this is different. Personally, been there--done that--most likely, not
for the last time.

But, you know what I mean--self-importance can be a drug which is as
addicting as any. Hero worship, guru/child relationships, etc.--I have
little use for.

Frankly, I learn more from the argument and debate here than I do from a
bunch of "experts" all slapping one another on the back!--drives me to
drag out a smith chart and refresh on ohms/mhos and why mhos are now
siemens, where to locate the locus and which direction to move, etc.--it
won't kill me/us ... I don't personally care if the "experts" are
proficient in using one, do-them-in-their-sleep, etc.--I want to do it
for myself, make-all-the-standard-mistakes, and come out knowing a bit
more than when I walked in--if at times I look like a fool, so be
it!--don't hold your breath, I am working on it ...
