[ot] precision in language
I have found it useful to try and understand what people mean by their statements rather than focus on the denotation errors.
Zipjet,
Unfortunately, the common failure to be precise in language has led to an equally common tendency of people to interpret meaning rather than simply accepting literal meaning. Unfortunately, people tend to color their interpretations with their personal opinions of the person issuing the words or what the listener or reader believes to be the ultimate intention of the issuer.
In this particular case PIPE has a negative connotation so one could easily believe that wallstarb is using lack of precision as a subterfuge to undermine MNTA's price for his personal gain. Of course, if he or anyone else objects to this insinuation, then maybe my words should be more carefully re-read.
regards,
Charlie
