.....wow, completely illogical! At least some logic there is. It's best that you
don't assume anything, if you ask me :). Still physics is something very
different.....I wonder if you were studying CS what can happen.

Oh well, were a bit lazy (oh no, overworked is better). Ok, I'll try to be more a
good programmer (that reads "study before speaking"). But sometimes it is much
quickier to ask the thing directly to you. Maybe it's that I have to make
questions explicitely. Ok, let's test that :).
