Let me add one more observation about your remarks.

Yesterday I had to rent a roto-tiller to put in a new section of lawn. As I was about to get started my neighbor dropped over and we began to chat about what I was doing. Finally, I said, I think it's time for me start the tiller up. He said, "Oh, let me help. I've been working on some of these gas powered machines on my property for some time." He then reached down and started manipulating the choke, fuel and so on. 15 minutes later he still hadn't gotten it started. I politely said, let me call the store and see if they can give me instructions. He agreed, saying, "Yeah, probably there's something wrong elsewhere."

When I came back 10 minutes later with the settings they had made, it started immediately. Here's my point. Sometimes misguided remarks only delay the solution. Sometimes they can almost stop it completely.
