@Aella yikes… I do not envy you. 😛
Well… oh boy. If this was my task, I’d probably take a mathematical approach, since communication is all about presenting the material in the way your audience is already used to thinking.

@warrioroftherealm ehehe… well they better not be, because I’m using them. 😛

@rochellaine no no, it’s fine. XD
