>>I can tell what he means<<
I, for one, love a well turned odd usage. Without speaking to context, though, since I haven't read the interview, these are not examples of such. Frankly, I don't really know what he means but whatever he *may* mean is evidently of little consequence. I do have a problem, though, with lack of precision in speech and writing where the meaning is significant and it seems to me that that, whether intentionally contrived and deceptive or just plain sloppy, is epidemic.
