uninhibited apologies.

Frankly, in a world where pomposity and vanity rule, packages like
pdfslide have no takers. Simplicity is a great quality which is
difficult to practice in life and only a handful of people do need
packages that create straightforward and simple looking presentations.
Because many people do like to hide their lack of depth or density of
their presentations with fancy gimmicks. I am so happy that there are
people like you still survive and wage war against the extravaganza of
ornamentation.
