I apologise for being crabby. I felt insulted that you had assumed I was asking for the definition of the place; I can look that up myself. I felt it was fairly obvious from context what was my intent, but I can see where there could be confusion. I also felt insulted that you felt the need to explain to me that rotation isn't dependent on gravity. I know this. I passed high school. I'm sure it was entirely unintentional, but you've come off as rather condescending.
Yeah, I have an unfortunate tendency to do that. As I said, I rather frequently over explain things. It was not, as you suspected, at all intentional, and I really do try not to do it.
That said, there's no need for you to apologize. It was entirely my fault, by intention or not, and I am not at all offended by your rather natural response.
I've reacted rather poorly, however, and assumed that you had some sort of malevolent intent. I don't imagine this is the case, and I apologise for reacting as though it was.
All I ask is that you keep in mind in future that I regard you as a comrade, and that at no point do I ever have malevolent intent with regards to my actions towards you - or, for that matter, anyone in this community. I just happen to have a social IQ of about 20.
