HANNIBAL, the ignorance of your youth hangs off of you like a blazing red flag.

Yes, they seem incompetent to that young man because they have a great deal of experience. OTHER then what they are now required to learn. Just for you I will put it in simple terms perhaps even you can understand if you bother to read this to gain from it, rather then reading it with an eye to answering in your usual need to prove yourself better attitude

In computer systems there is a hard drive disc, the more of it's memory space that is used, the SLOWER IT GOES, can you grasp that?

The young man who sees himself as intellectually superior is simply experiencing the fact of his age, wherein he is approaching maximum neural interconnectivity. That occurs around the age of twenty five, following that stage the mind begins to truncate it's connectivity, losing connectivity over time as the connections are not re-enforced by USE.

Therefore, people who engage in an activity over a long space of time, something you are yet to experience Hannibal, have a tendency in the neural systems to truncate the pathways, losing some of the ones that had previously been there. This leaves only the pathways that have had the greatest usage over the time that they have been working.

Ergo it is more difficult for them to re-establish the pathways that they had previously had, in their brains, as the level of neural plasticity has diminished over time, and/with their TRAINING.

KNOW WHAT LOGIC MEANS?

LOGIC means that when we state that A is greater then B (A>B) we can determine from the simplicity of A having a value of 8, and B having a value of 5, that there is within A an equivalency of B, as we know that in 8 we can find the value 5.
But in acknowledging that reality, that does NOT allow us to now state that B is equal to A, even thought we know that the value of B can be found in A, because the original statement, the CONCLUSION is that A is greater then B.

This is why I could see why you saw a catch 22 in the?Dis Dis? business, but it is not applicable, because the answer that I gave IS THE CONCLUSION

THAT IS HOW LOGIC WORKS, and it requires that you have some knowledge to deal with to start. Clearly you do, but I suspect that you lack in practical experience, in life, as to realize just what it is that you are talking about, how some of it applies.

Further to all of that is the simplicity that you are proving that what you have attempted to state about me is very clearly, and truthfully, the truth about you! The persistent attacks, the weak arguments, (Heck you didn't even bother to couch you attack behind a weak argument this time. Here?s a 'Weak argument'; "You attacked me for my spelling of exist, so I can go after you for 'their'" you do not show yourself to be better, but you sink the level at any opportunity you get!)

If you truly had wanted to learn something, you would have asked a question, like ?I don?t understand what you mean by it?s their experience that makes them seem incompetent, please explain further that statement?, as that would have demonstrated a desire to learn, as opposed to your clear attack upon me for YOUR not having enough knowledge to understand what I have stated.

But clearly this isn?t you, you are not someone looking to learn new things, not someone in possession of curiosity, no, you are someone who is arrogant in his belief that you know everything, arrogant to the point that you are going to prove this to everyone, and I am the person that you are going to abuse to prove it.

I?ll tell you right here child, be forewarned, very forewarned, I am not the guy you want to attempt this upon, cause I?ll take you to pieces very easily, slowly, diligently, and by God?s Grace, with more ease then you know!

As for the suppression of me, it isn?t because ?I?m dumb? as you so ineloquently put it, it is because of what I know that I am being suppressed, and because what I know is (apparently) that far ahead of the rest of the pack. But you wouldn?t know that, nor would you have a clue how to recognize that, as you are far to eager to try to prove that you are the one who knows, even thought you are the one who can?t even find meaning in his life!

And this also proves what you have attempted to state about me, going off topic, exactly what you have accomplished with you little, wee, tiny, diatribe of attack, what you keep seeing in me is really the truth about you, but you don?t have enough intellectual curiosity or insight to see that, no introspection, just a spit out venom for anyone who has opinions that don?t match up with your skewed view of the world.

So challenge me, if you will, demonstrate to me your Superior Logic Skills, (if you have any!) that actually come from anything/something that isn?t simply you parroting another. Tell me something that you have discovered, tell me something new!

Oh, and by the way, you never held up your end of the bargain in the ?Dis Dis? piece, you never proved anything!

My apologies to all of the rest of you, this is now way off topic, as has happened before for basically the same reasons. If you would like to comment on either the original answer, or the furthered explanation of it herein, please, feel free! THANKS
