Translation:

"I'm willing to make a fool of myself on NANOG by posting in reply to a 
post (that uses a term I am too lazy to find the definition of), 
completely misunderstanding the term, and then I'll post another reply, 
asking for private replies (to hopefully avoid the public larting that 
is surely coming), educating me on this term.  All because it's easier 
to click "reply" and type an uneducated answer than it is to fire up a 
browser and google for the information and educate myself."
