You won't get-it until you try to select something
from anything that I've posted, with the intent of
stating that whatever it is that you've selected is,
supposedly, 'disruptive'.

Give it a try, and I'll demonstrate that, not only
is whatever it is that you will have selected not
'disruptive', but also that it is flat-out Necessary
with respect to actually discussing what's being
discussed.

Instead of doing this, all you've done is make
generalized 'pronouncements' that do not, at all,
address anything that I've posted, but which, do
disclose your own 'presumption'.

Then, you 'blame' me for what's in your 'pre-
sumption' :-]

Sorry, I Think for myself, thank-you-very-much.
