When did I dog wrestling? I already indicated that it WAS rigorous and that that wasn't what I was looking for. If working on my writing means dumbing it down for you, it's not going to happen.

I'm afraid it does if you can't understand the meaning of proper English sentences. You are more than welcome cease attempting to communicate with me if it is too difficult though. You seem frightened and confused by my words, so I think it would probably be a good idea and make you look like less of a troll.

Are you always this positive and benevolent, Unkotare?

Do you want honesty, or rainbows and puppy-dogs?

Good point. I want honesty and truth, however, I also want balance. Incessant negativity doesn't just bring many of the other forum members down, but it also hurts you, and imbalances you. It could bring about depression, bitterness, and even mental disorders and illnesses. On the other side of the coin, incessant optimism and happy happy rainbow sunshine can bring about stupidity and foolishness. Both extremes can bring about a reluctance to see reality.

I have been told many things, but what do you use to polish blades?

Since they're stainless steel, any decent cloth (tissue, cotton, a towel) will do.

Ah, but stainless steel still has to be cared for, not just wiped....

That's true, which is why I use a fine/clean/soft cloth instead of stones and sandpaper.
