There you go again.

As a person who writes for a living (and I assure you that I do, despite the lack of skill that may seem manifest here) I find that humorous. This is not conversation. These are words on a screen. As the writer of those words it is you who conveys the tone by the voice that you choose to write in. Your actual voice has nothing to do with it. It is not my job to imagine your actual voice in conversation. The idea that you would have me do so is pantently absurd.
Whether you intended condescension or not, the way you opened your post conveyed it to me. That is not my failing as a reader. The fact that you found humour in my honest question is your business. That you chose to express that humour could, again, easily be construed as condescension.
Perhaps it would help if you imagined me not as a student in a lecture hall but as a 36 year old man with some education and life experience of his own, and that has little tolerance for being spoken down to.
With that said, I read the rest of your post with interest. And again, I appreciate your willingness to share information with us.

I realize that microbials won't stick around if not given the environment to support them. That's why I made that statement. I didn't know the specifics of it. Thanks for that information.
Done hijacking the thread. Bowing out.
