The only impression I got from your message was that you have utmost enthusiasm for learning the art, no arrogance at all. I think DEnnis just has trouble sometimes with understanding English (I don't just mean your spelling DEn!) and how subtle expressions can change the context entirely. You are like me perhaps in the respect that we can often become over-enthusiastic about something, and can maybe appear conceited/egotistical to someone who doesn't quite get where your coming from. In my opinion (BIG HEAD BIG HEAD ;)) enthusiasm is THE MOST important attribute (+ (1<<27) sorry, C on the brain :)) when it comes to being the best at what you do. The best example here I can think of is why Michael Schumacher is accepted as being the best F1 driver: He LOVES to race, and LOVES to win, just that bit more than all the others.
