I’m sure they’ve covered the fundamentals, Haiku.

I’ve long been a fan; it’s one of those Anne Elliott things. However, as I’m fairly certain the regard wouldn’t be reciprocated, I’m very lurky about it. Excepting the obligatory in-jokes, natch.

I feel obliged to point out that the undies in question are neither frank nor fearless.

OK, but are they unambiguously informative?

Fyodor, I didn't know you were a fan too! And Liam, I feel obliged to point out that the undies in question are neither frank nor fearless.

Indeed. They sound like undergarments a public service department would provide: clear, correct, unambiguously informative briefings.
