If I can't even manage to say "colleague" without screwing it up, how
can we assume that anything I say was an insult to anything and not
just some kind of unfortunate miscommunication? (sorry for the lack of
proof-reading, I must have been too busy vomiting out a large volume
of words)

I am probably less clearly spoken than most people here, — pretty
shameful considering that English is my native language and isn't for
many of the other people on this list—  but I am by no means alone in
communicating poorly from time to time.

If nothing else I hope that my frequent incoherence can serve as an
example of why it is essential to be patient and tolerant when we
communicate with others.
