Oh, okay.

Why would I be "offended"?  I honestly wish people would stop
interpreting my follow-ups as being "offended."

In 100% honesty, I think "too far outside the box" for most people.
Most of the time, anywhere from 75% to even 95% of people on a list**
"just don't get" what I'm talking about.  So I _never_ take offense.

My goal is to _always_ explain why something may be happening.

I just wanted to follow-up why sometimes you can read CD or DVDs, but
not the other -- or possibly different CD and/or DVD formats but not
another.

**NOTE:  There have been several people that have been around LEAP for 5
+ years that can attest to my "thinking outside the box."  This
certainly does everything -- from seeming arrogance to just plainly
"pissing people off" that I "just won't agree" or "subscribe to common
thought."  At the same time, several people around LEAP have gained
experience and/or engineering degrees as well over that time.

I _never_ "hold" my engineering degree "over" anyone -- _period_.  But
as a lesser-known LEAP member of over 6 years who first joined back when
he was early into his EE program and recently graduated a couple of
years ago (with 1-2 years of post-graduate experience under his belt)
recently told me, he now finds himself at "odds" with many technicians
as well.  ;->

The world is in need of solutions.  Unfortunately, people
seem to be more interested in blindly aligning themselves
with one of only two viewponts -- an "us v. them" debate
that has nothing to do with finding an actual solution.
