Tom:

True, it was a mild pounce. My 7 month old orange cat is much scarier :)

Concerning the downgrade: yes, it was announced, but neither the text nor a pointer had appeared on the thread, thus, I think it was a valuable contribution. Not as valuable as it would have been a week earlier, but still more valuable than, say, this piece I'm writing just now.

Concerning "shooting the messenger," it happens constantly on SI, and there is at least one on this thread with a very itchy trigger finger. Normally I just stay out of the way, though it seens to have gotten more difficult lately. For some reason I felt like criticizing your post, something about straws and camel's backs I guess.

Third, I am also skeptical of the motives of this new poster. But I am still glad that he posted the report.

PLS
