Uggh. Truculance and ignorance make a loathsome combination.

The riter was clearly pised off, but to what end? Does he suspect a conspiracy to short change the public? Does he expect a shamed and apologetic reponse?

I dread to countenance the prospect, but perhaps our dolt was in fact so cranially recessive that he was asking an honest question, somehow expecting a technical explanation which he would have no doubt found unfathomable.

Actually, let’s be positive about his writing. At least he was having a go.

I was very much tempted to write underneath it the single word ‘can’t’. But without the apostrophe and with a very different vowel.
