  1. The word "you" when used in this book means you in general, not you the person reading
  2. this book. At no time should you (yes, this time I mean you) take the word "you," when used in
  3. a sentence describing illegal activity, to mean you as in you the person reading this right now
  4. (yes, I still mean you, but later on I won't mean you. Okay?). I'll just mean you in general—
  5. humans—whatever. The point is I'm not telling you (yes, you) to do anything illegal, but sentences just sound so much better when writers can liberally use the word "you" without fear
  6. that someday a law will be passed banning its use if it is used to tell you (you) to do something
  7. that Big Brother doesn't like you (I mean you) to do. Okay, so from this point forward, beginning with the next sentence, that is, "you" just means you in general and not you, you.
  8. You got that, you?
