Thanks for that candid viewpoint Stefan.

Everyone only ever hears or sees what shows up in the media... a media
that seems to delight in pouncing on any tidbit and blowing it all out
of proportion.  We rarely ever get the view of the "other side" of the
story unless it has been sanitized by the marketeers and dare I say
it... lawyers <shudder>.

I hope the tail keeps wagging the dog :-)
