That's all that was needed. Face it, you said something stupid and now you're trying to act like you didn't. Driverless cars will be a reality, probably before you're prepared for it.So, IOW, you insisted on verification and got it. Now you feel foolish because you thought you had a "gotcha" and didn't.
The verification is nothing more than a ride at Disneyland. Closed road, point "A" to point "B" and back again.
