. . . not everything is simple or can be simply stated. This is one of them.
My father was a scientist. He finished a degree in Architecture and then completed Chemistry and Microbiology eight years later. He made it clear that as the subject matter became more complex, so must the language.
"Yes and no and maybe" do not begin to describe the language needed to discuss the dynamic interactions of combustion.
Just because this happens to be my field does not mean I have to devolve. I make my posts as reasonably understandable from the viewpoint of the subject complexity. There are enough key phrases and words for anyone to do a quick check on my content - assuming you have the background to understand what Google spits out at you.
