No, I wasn't even in a bad mood; I just misunderstood you. I'm very 
sorry for jumping to conclusions. I was too defensive. I read your 
response several times, but I still got the wrong idea. I'll be more 
careful next time. We really need the <sarcasm> tag; there just aren't 
enough clues in prose to infer the tone of the speaker. Please forgive 
me for jumping to conclusions.

It reminds me of a Simpsons episode in which Homer is angry at his boss 
and dictates a nasty letter in a sarcastic tone. When read in a normal 
tone, however, the letter sounds perfectly amicable except for one last 
sentence, which was composed by Bart. I'm sure the Simpsons fans will 
remember the episode.

By the way, did you mean that there are websites with just subtitles in 
easy usable formats? That would be convenient.
