Why sadness? You took a post with an intention to locate a printing press
and singled out a visual idea and made it into a scientific debate. Then
you began attacking values and accusing intent without fully comprehending
the concept. Your blatant comments were based on an area of interest that
you consider yourself to be adept at, but you missed all else. Rather than
ask questions, your made assumptions and claimed them as facts.

science or you look foolish.
