what does "only mild exaggeration" mean? Is it an exaggeration or not?
@Avaipeng,
It is, and if it were Twain, "mild" would be a vast understatement.
@roger,
so it means Twain said it with a lot of exaggeration?
@Avaipeng,
That, or the exaggeration might only be considered mild by comparison.
@roger,
OK, I got it, thank you very mucn, Roger
