Might I humbly suggest that instead of getting flamed and saying
"DO NOT READ IN TO WHAT IS WRITTEN," you just explain yourself better in
the first place? Try saying the same thing in more than one way, so that
people who don't understand it the first time might gain a better
understanding of your meaning from the rest of the message.
In this way, we can keep the arguments to the actual subject, and
not to who misunderstood what.
