That's a smooth tactic to get out of something. We need to start a thread about hedging and how it can profit you or not.

I've had people misunderstand me. Many times. Sometimes that's all my own fault though. Not always great at expressing my thoughts well enough or completely enough.

Sometimes things just get lost in the translation or context is lost. Communication is hard enough sometimes in "real" life and even harder when you're back and forth in black and white type.

Isn't that the truth!!

Can't hear those infractions, I mean inflections in the written word.

I think they're both kind of saying the same thing.

Misunderstandings are a part of life...not hedging...just a fact.

That's why it is vital that we say what we mean, stop and consider if it were me receiving this post what would I make of it, and just be considerate of one another.
