I was under the impression that you were Alex Trifecta. ^^;; (Now the "Trey" monicker makes a lot more sense than it did a little while ago.)
To put things into perspective, he was repeating something along the lines of "+0, -0, +0." I'm sure that it was preceded by a joke of some sort, but, being engaged in other conversation, we were not listening to it at the time.
