I'm sorry for assuming your intentions were less than innocent and positive. I also want to live in that sort of world, and I hope it didn't seem like I was jumping on your case or calling you a jerk. I just think it's important to choose our words in a way that encourages people to read. Too often people think they're bad at reading or math or something and so they avoid it, when it should be more like singing; it doesn't matter if it sounds good, we sing as a manner of expression. Reading should be for everyone. But, I was misguided, and you weren't disagreeing with that notion, and so I'm sorry.

It is very rare for anyone on the internet to apologize or admin fault. Well done. Thank you. I understand your intent and I'm not mad. Apology accepted.
