The idea that anyone needs help to apply meaning to a symbol is
ludicrious. I've always thought goats were grand, so for this post I'll
interpret nuby to mean goat.

I'm not a goat.

Another empty claim. You should consider what I said about your
interpretation of words, as you've done with "beginner", "fool" and
"wisdom" over the course of this exchange. Until you try to communicate
with people you're going to learn little from such exchanges. I suspect
there may be a problem with your ability to interpret language; maybe
it's because English isn't your first language, or maybe it's something
deeper.
