Because your chances of getting it right if you are just trying
"clear" without finding out what it means from the specs are
slim. And your chances of making an impending disaster of a cake
better by hauling it out of the oven and shoving salt in it
because you have heard the word salt in association with cakes in
the past are even slimmer.
How slim is this latter? Let me tell you: slimmer than the
chances that you will ever acknowledge the meaning and
implications of anything said here without misunderstanding over
50% of it.
But it's ok. Eliza. It is not your fault. Where is that original
Basic programmer...?
