I understand very well your talk of filters. What I am suggesting is that YOUR filter is not set high enough. Ones filter for an SI chat room must be much higher than one filtering noise in an engineering application. By the same token, a filter that high will remove from consideration much of what you say. Although I can understand how errors can occur in impulsive communication, I must admit, that for me, faulty grammar or construction makes it much more difficult to perceive intended meaning. Others may miss the synaptic connections that may be obvious to you. I am also an engineer of language. I have the highest regard for engineers and the engineering mentality.
