Oh yes baby, communicate it to me openly and transparently.

I hate the word transparently. It can mean one of two things:

1. Crystal clear: like you can see through a crystal and can identify any defect or impurity present

2. Invisible: like air is transparent. You can't see air. Can't see the nitrogen, oxygen, PPM, bacteria, germs, CO2, methane etc. It is there, it is transparent, even though you don't want it to be.

Instead I prefer terms crystal clear for first and opaque for second

Thank you for your input, Bob.
