You just said:

>>> would't do it.

Again, for emphasis, you just said:

IOW, "If there were [anything wrong with this], I wouldn't do it."

You asserted your infallibility . Perhaps you meant, "There isn't
anything *obviously* wrong with this," but that has a quite different
meaning than, "There obviously isn't anything wrong with this."

I know you've typed a lot the past few days, so perhaps it was only a
misplacement of an adverb.

Please don't be! It was a wonderful learning experience. I learned a
valuable early lesson about people who are so convinced that they are
right that they are unable to discuss anything. I learned about
double-standards, hypocrisy and the irrationality of people who
proclaim the infallibility of any person, idea, religion or book.
