Congratulations, Janie. You are one of the very few people who have ever actually SEEN a computer bug instead of merely experiencing one.

Amos, I am quite capable of eschewing my usual style of prose (which gives the reader the benefit of an assumption of a modicum of intelligence and erudition) and attempt communication in a more academic or obfuscating manner (such as Governmentese). Or, should you prefer, I can lower my style to that of, shall we say, Shame McBride. Which would you prefer?

(Not speaking German I'm afraid I cannot communicate in Germanic polysyllables. Making head-on collisions out of poor old ordinary words seems to me to be a way to wreck communications, not improve them. But as Schiller wrote, "Mit der Dummheit kämpfen Götter selbst vergebens.")
