&gt;<i> And stating that &quot;All the people, I've been in contact with ...

</I>Oh yes, I have used broad, absolute terms, at least the way you quoted 
me...

Because I did relativate my statement, where you quoted just dots. And 
telling non-native speakers: &quot;your mastership of English is not good 
enough to write texts differentiated enough to get a point across&quot; is 
just a bit, let's say snobbish, don't you think?
