Of course. As am I.

Meant to harm, really.. don't you think that's a bit of a leap? You write in an authoritarian manner which suggests that you assume the opinion you've developed with the help of apparently better experts in psychology than any of us may have had the benefit of interacting with, is more valid than anyone else's, and it was merely my intention to hold you to account for that. It was a perfectly fair response.
