   You have driven around in a car! A tourist - replete with more opinions than   
   those who live in the place you visit. I do not ask for your insipid and   
   unwonted advice nor your admittedly absent knowledge hid behind your   
   strawmen, nor actually romatic notions of things you know not of what it is   
   to live in the highlands.   
      
   You are like one of these nautical experts who use rather more marine terms   
   than actual sailors. A Celtomaniac!   
      
   I am sorry if you do not /like/ what I witness as my experience, but that,   
   Sir, is about you and your ideas of how things are, not about me, and what   
   cannot be seen from the A9.
