Thank you, I'll file that with the other thousand brilliantly insightful
solutions to FAI I've heard over the last three years, with stickers that
say "Heartwarming", "Nontechnical", "Anthropomorphic", "No Walkthrough
Given", and "Fits on a T-Shirt".

I don't think so. I'm too modest to be REALLY arrogant. My compassion and
pity prevents me from mocking fools with the audacity to disagree with me;
it is not their fault that they are less gifted than I. But thank you for
the compliment, and I'll try harder in the future.
