Then say it. I think it will help.

I'm very careful with what people consider obvious. The W3C
specifications are full of obvious statement. There are more than
one meaning to words.
From WordNet (r) 2.0 :
hostile
adj 1: characterized by enmity or ill will; "a hostile
nation"; "a
hostile remark"; "hostile actions" [ant: amicable]
2: not belonging to your own country's forces or those of an
ally; "hostile naval and air forces" [ant: friendly]
3: very unfriendly; "a hostile attitude"
4: impossible to bring into friendly accord; "hostile factions"
5: very unfavorable to life or growth; "a hostile climate"; "an
uncongenial atmosphere"; "an uncongenial soil"; "the
unfriendly environment at high altitudes" [syn: uncongenial,
unfriendly]
6: marked by features that oppose constructive treatment or
development; "not able to accomplish much in such a
hostile environment"
7: used of attempts to buy or take control of a business;
"hostile takeover"; "hostile tender offer"
Hoping that my comment was not taken as an hostile(6) comment. ;)

Thanks for your clarification Ian.
