FWIW, I suspect your comment is getting downvoted because of the nasty tone, not because of the larger point your making.
- OJFord 3y agoThanks, I try my best not to make assumptions about tone when reading comments, because it's not well conveyed in text. I did my best to quote " 'dummy' " for example, to allude to 'for dummies' texts rather than to describe the commenter I replied to as such. On re-reading myself though, probably that was still misunderstood. As for writing comments, it helps not to worry about internet points :).
