installed gmail, get message, want to delete, nowhere does it indicate how? Something in draft folder, how did it get there, since I didn't draft anything, want to delete, where does it tell how to delete. some box opens with message that is illiterate, meaningless, except I suppose to the computer programmer who does not feel it necessary to be understood, so words that have no referents to anything, like click for various actions or some goofy goobledegook like that, as if everyone is suppose to know the interior of his conceptualized mind? Why can't computer people just learn how to communicate simply in english, instead of making up their own argot?
