Neat turn of words I saw today on here ..'pedantic rant' .

Rather funny ..................since a person writing with passion or
just belief in their opinions/perceptions ..with mere enthusiasm, or
even strong enthusiasm, might be construed by some as a rant.

so 'enthusastic missive'   might = pendantic rant, depending perhaps on
ones mood and perceptions.
Perceptions are just that ..
how something appears to someone , not necessarilyrelated to how
something actually is.

official notice ..this is not a rant thank you.
and besides, if we can't tolerate other people's opinions and passions ,
we're in troubleright there.
Warmly,
stay sane !
