that's true!

At least I accept it with Rev, since i know what's going on through  
my experience
with a knife, a compass etc... :-D

Sure, but that is not in any way affected by my attidtude, see above!

Again, the docs are not THAT bad, in opposite, they are excellent,
but canot cover ALL aspects, since Rev is SO powerful, i think...

And like the engine, the docs are also a "work in progress" and get  
better with each release!
