       More good is more good Goo. It's a math thing. You can't get   
   it, but most of us can. If he can't explain something so simple and   
   obvious as more=more, and/or that in some cases more=better,   
   then I hope whatever he's doing his thesis on is even more simple   
   than that. But damn Goob, even though you're giving every indication   
   of being too stupid to understand even the easiest of concepts, you   
   are right that he should give you an explanation even if he only   
   keeps pasting the same thing for you over and over. Stupid fools   
   like yourself are what stock answers were invented for Goo, so Rupert   
   should still provide you with an explanation even though you've shown   
   yourself far too stupid to comprehend any answers.
