( Sarcasm may be a sign of good brain health. Research shows that a little sarcasm can be a good thing when it comes to cognitive function. In fact, an inability to detect sarcasm may even be a sign of brain problems or disease, like dementia.) this is a parenthetical ie English not your native tongue
simply it is all good

At the field I often tell other to come here and read about the long thread on these electronic drives to control fuel flow.
I am too busy flying models to bother with them. Maybe if my eyesight starts to go or something else I will find more none flying interest.

have a great day

Now that you mention brain malfunctions, does Autism qualify, because, yes, I am and I am, at times having a bit of trouble detecting sarcasm, when I am communicating with folks unfamiliar to me. Happens at times even in Dutch (first language). Not always pleasant.
