frequently.


Sorry but I couldn't resist: if you have several levels of approach
standard why did you use the worst one?


It's same the one I use when ever I try to demonstrate the skills I
have honed to perfection after a 1000 hours of practice.

I thought at first you had missed it - but that was a perfect riposte.
Will all make little errors but some are funnier than others.

Don't forget, we don't know the actual grading scale. That could be
one of the higher levels.

But I thought you invented the scale? So how many grades are there and
where does c**p come in the rankings - well above c**b I imagine?
