hrm.

well...
if my only reason in posting was to effect change then you might be right.

i was actually interested in discussing the issue, however.

in talking about whether people did / didn't like the idea...
reasons why people do / don't like the idea...

sometimes if you talk things through people reach something of a consensus.

...i would have thought it would be a win-win situation for all concerned...

also... he didn't say 'no for now and forever'...

and he didn't say we should stop discussing it either...
