Now that I know the reasons behind the design my curiosity has been satisfied in those particular subjects (at least for now) and I can use them without bringing some level of conflict to my mind. Thanks a lot for everything. --001a11c22860b925ce051d5c6b7a Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
