Lane3; There's nothing "wild" about having a reasonable confidence level in your enemy and your approach to defeating the enemy before setting out on a risky path. I would call it "wild" to shoot first and ask questions later, which is what is being advocated. I thought we were discussing GW. GW is not an enemy, it just is - or isn't. Once again though, your analogy sides with my argument - not yours. In war if you think things over before shooting - you're dead. That's one of the reasons they use kids as soldiers. .....My point, as I guess you missed the subtleties of the comment, was that the downside of GW is absolutely huge. Would you acknowledge that? steve
