@chemoelectric I don't mean this adjective in a value negative way: would you say you are a "pedant"?

@amca I’ve gotten elderly. Things that once made sense to me now make no sense at all. Shortening commands so they look ‘K00L’ makes them both unfamiliar and difficult to read.

And George Orwell saw that such ‘modernization’ was about erasing and devaluing the past, rather than treasuring it and trying to build upon it.

@amca No. I would not say that. I know what you mean and I am something different.

@chemoelectric can I ask:
1) What do I mean?
and
2) What is the word you'd for use for the different thing you are, please?
