Yes - it clarifies things quite well. But do try to get out more. The 'smoking' comment was a good-natured tweak. I figured it was intended to be good-natured; but I also wanted to make sure you were comfortable with your understanding of the answers. And, more importantly, to make sure I wasn't way out in left field.
Besides, as with most diverse communities, sometimes really basic terms need to be clearly defined. Like "stack": reading all the Posts in this thread, it looked like there were two different definitions for it. The first was referring to component abilities "stacking" in a sector; the second was referring to components "stacking" on a ship.
And, if I sound pedantic, it's because I've spent too much time hanging out with teachers; my father taught math for 25+ years, my aunt taught English for 30+ years, and my sister taught first grade for a few years (before becoming a librarian). And I'm an engineer, which just compounds the problem...
