Congratulations, you've arrived
"Alright, now erase what's in the 'Connection name' box."
"It says 'Connection to 123456789'."
"Yes, you'll need to erase that."
"It says 'Connection to 123456789'. What do I do with it?"
"You'll need to erase everything in the 'Connection name' box."
"Hold on, hold on, hold on. What I see on my screen right now is--"
"Yes sir, I know what's on your screen. You see a box titled Connection name, and in that box, it says 'Connection to 123456789'. You need to erase 'Connection to 123456789' so that we can type in something else."
"Finally! That's what I'm getting at!"
Yes, it is. You are getting there, just very gradually. Also, you haven't noticed that I'm already there and waving you in with a huge flag. Don't get snippy with me because you can't follow instructions.
