Wow! Thanks for the clarification! I was /totally/ lost for a moment, as |
| 8 |
I simply couldn't follow your "assume you are running ~x86" thought |
| 9 |
process /at/ /all/! =8^) |
| 10 |

I'm very relieved to see it wasn't me going bonkers after all! It can be |
| 12 |
pretty distressing when words that normally have meaning, in a sentence |
| 13 |
structure that still has meaning, from a poster that usually knows what |
| 14 |
he's talking about, suddenly fails to make any sense /whatsoever/. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Sometimes, there's a similar effect when I doze off at the computer and |
| 17 |
drift between dreaming and awake, and stuff from the dreams enters the |
| 18 |
semi-waking state and I realize it doesn't make sense but can't exactly |
| 19 |
say why... until I wake up. Actually, there have been a couple times |
| 20 |
I didn't realize something couldn't have /actually/ happened the way I |
| 21 |
/thought/ I remembered it, until later. Only I checked myself and I |
| 22 |
didn't /think/ I was asleep for /this/ one... unless I was dreaming the |
| 23 |
entire thing... |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
So... yes, it's a BIG relief to find it wasn't me, and actually make sense |
| 26 |
of things again! You had me *VERY* mixed up, for a few moments. |
