   The point is a pill in my pocket is more than just a pill once you have   
   some context such that it is a penicillin pill, just as a bssid is more   
   than just a bssid when you have context such as the exact location of it.   
      
   Neither you nor Frank own the IQ to understand there is context involved.   
      
   Since you can't understand the power of the context, neither of you   
   understands that a bssid is you just as penicillin can cure strep throat.

   You are aware my undergrad degree is in microbiology, Chris, are you not?   
   (Hell, you joked about my textbooks many times so I know you know this.)   
      
   Note: Penicillin does not kill bacteria; it prevents them from growing.   
   It does that by interfering with their peptidoglycan cell wall structure.

   Oh Jesus. My main point is you and Frank have such a low IQ that you can't   
   fathom that a bssid attached to your exact location is more than a bssid.   
      
   Your substandard IQ doesn't allow you to comprehend the contextual power.   
      
   The analogy with the pill was simply that you and Frank own such a low IQ   
   that you can't comprehend that not every pill does the same thing, Chris.   
      
   Not every pill will prevent strep bacteria from growing.   
   You and Frank don't own the necessary IQ to understand contextual power.   
      
   That's why you say a BSSID with your GPS location is "just a number".
