Yes, and you won't get me to argue here. I'm too experienced a smart-Alec to contradict another smart-Alec :)

Well I'll take smart alec over being called pedantic any day.

Having said that, sincerely wasn't looking for the argument, just a matter of going back to my original point, that you corrected and educated me on.

I knew there was some kind of melting issue, when I had made my original comment. I had just assumed it was the plasma, but it ended up not being that, as you noted.

My follow-up link comment was just to say "Hey look there is a valid reason for melting to happen, I wasn't imagining it".

All's good on my end.
