             You asked about the placement of an adverb, and Mark did what I   
   would have done by expanding on the concept... [chuckle].   
      
             The choice may be easier if you realize he is offering examples   
   based on the placement of two adverbs and adding the information that native   
   speakers often prefer to say "right-side out" because that is how they were   
   taught.  :-Q
