I think this person just took offense at my repeating a thought in a different way. Person, when I do that, it is not because I think you're stupid (which btw is a bit uncharitable of an assumption for you to make about *me*). It is because I wasn't satisfied with the way I expressed it the first time & am trying again, as much for my own satisfaction as for your sake...and certainly more for the latter if it wasn't totally apparent from your reaction to the first iteration that I was articulate enough. I am taking responsibility for a perceived failure on my part, not yours.
