I’m not from the States, I’m from Europe.

Oh!
Well that makes sense. Thank you.

So an elliptical trajectory is also called that because it “falls short” of a circular one?

He was considerably more experienced as a climber. And even I could tell you not to go mountain climbing in snowboarding boots.

We barely ever watch any TV channels.
