Yes, I do realise that. But what else should I do, then to
clearly state what I mean? Even then people can misunderstand,
if just try hard enough - and Daniel seems to be trying
quite hard.

So, once more: Sharp knives aren't dangerous, *IF* used
properly. A reader can of course ignore the *IF*, but then
it's the readers problem if he got a nonsense statement, as
it's no longer my statement, even if the reader tries to phrase
it that way in a response.

I do agree that it's likely my fault - but not in this case.
I don't know what Daniel is after.
