I'll agree with you on one thing: That was a cheap shot. Taken at some very
hard-working folks, by the way.
I'm not sure whether you really believe all that you've posted on this
thread. It looks to me like you're getting a big kick out of playing devil's
advocate. But if you really do believe what you're saying above, you haven't
got a clue.
Walk a mile in my SO2R shoes--you'll be singing a different tune. Or perhaps
humbly mute.
