However, to remind you, I was a professor for years, today I'm retired, but the professor is still in me. I'm used to walk into a class, where I'm the authority, and my students listen. I've also been to many seminars in which I sat quietly and listened because the person in front of me had greater authority than me in the matters presented. So I know when it's time for me to be the professor and when I should be the student. Right now, I've read your posts in this thread, and I can only come to the conclusion that you are a confused student. You might know a lot, and perhaps more than me, but in the understand department, there is definitely a lot of room to improve. I hope you don't take this last remark as an insult. If that's okay with you so far, we can proceed.
This is neither a classroom nor a seminar, it is a discussion. I can only come to the conclusion that you are a confused retired professor.
Whatever rocks your boat...
