    Yes, take everything with a grain of salt.

    In some areas of knowledge I have to act a little dumb and not flaunt my credentials, and in others just do more research to appear slightly more knowledgeable, to avoid revealing my real identity online.

      Yes, and sometimes you have to throw in a real curve ball!

      By the way, as head of quality at a saltworks in Europe, I should point out that there are as many shapes and sizes to processed salt as there are subtleties to their trace mineral concentrations. So “a grain of salt” isn’t a well defined quantity.
