said what they meant. My tagline from my sister site.
I have found it practicable not to diverge from that sound advice. As an example…there is an expression I recently found in a patent… goes like this:
“between the head branch of the Great Creek of Nottoway River, Sappone Creek and the Rockey Run”
Naturally, in my arrogance, I assumed the knuckle dragging hayseeds were awed by the majesty of the Nottoway River. I wasted precious time pondering where might the ‘Great’ section of Nottoway River might lie…
No… they meant the Great Creek…you know, like they said.

I was so taken aback by my find that I immortalized it by highlighting it in blue for all to wonder at the magnificent candor of simple British immigrants back in the day.
I overthunk it… KISS...keep it simple stupid
