So, O Unregistered one, are you implying that clear communication skills to transmit information with as little semantic distortion as possible is somehow considered a "disability"?

Or are you somehow compensating for dropping out of High School after huffing too much Scotch Guard?

Cf: "Creative Order", "Orderly Creation".

I had an epiphany.  There.

On an odd note, in Japanese, the construct zen-zen implies 'not at all,' such as in:

Nihon-go wa zen-zen wakarimasen

I don't understand japanese at all.

Conincidence?

Yeah, probably.

Note to filmmakers of the future: bad dialog leads to anger, bad directing leads to hatred, shallow action sequences lead to suffering. Farming out a movie to a corporation of computer animators is a path to the dark side of filmmaking.

Nobody cares about the Japanese.
