This is very dense and somewhat confusing to me. Is your answer to my second (yes or no) question a yes or a no? edit: Like sorry if I look stupid here, but can you quote and answer either of my questions? Do you feel like you answered either of them?

I will not answer your questions the way you framed them but try to respond from my own perspective because I personally think you framed them without regard to promoting good discourse. I do not think either comment is evidence of outrage (opposing your supposition) but the reply stating that the previous added nothing to the conversation, I agree somewhat with you, also adds nothing to the conversation. What it does is offer the premise for a different conversation and in that regard both may add value. I appoligize for not making that point plain, I felt it was obvious.

    I explained that I was responding from my perspective. I will need some clarification from you now. Can you explain what specifically you're having trouble understanding?

      Yes, I can explain what I’m having trouble understanding! In fact, I’ve posted unanswered questions in this very thread detailing the things that I would like to know! Feel free to reference my previous questions as several answers to your question.

        Perhaps you and I have different styles of communication and this isn't working so well so I will see myself along. Thank you for your time and I hope you get the answers you seek in the style you understand. I do appreciate you responding and inteoducing me to your style.

        > Perhaps you and I have different styles of communication We can certainly agree on that. I put a lot of thought and effort into making my questions clear and specific when there is a particular piece of information that I’m trying to find. I do not put a lot of stock into meandering exposition — I don’t understand how on earth “answering questions that weren’t asked and refusing to answer questions that were” could possibly be something that I could do with a straight face. I would be embarrassed to think that I could influence another person that way.
