Jack, I think if you read my posts carefully you will find no blaming of anything on Mr. Hall. I was pointing out his bias as I saw it. Furthermore, what I wrote was heavily drizzled with "in my opinion" sauce, if you will remember.

I think Pogo actually said, "We have met the enemy and he is us", but I will defer to an expert...
[ Mom Wheeler, ye Pogo expert, plz notify me via e-mail if my correction needs correcting! ].

I agree that the opt numbers produce either giddiness, disbelief or an odd condition consisting of both!

Jack, maybe you're not flagging, just flagitious. < vvbg >

Anyone here to lift Flagging Jack's, flagging spirit ? Well, yes, but..

Yes Jack I can,
but, in the same way that the bigger they are, the harder they fall..

Here your hopes have been to the Moon, without Alice, and back,
eventho you wanted a one-way trip, not round of a up and down.

But you asked for a reason to have spirits lifted,
knowing history,
not learning from history,
like Richard, one again once one too many times,
so fall, fall onto one's sword,
skewer one's self, like a shishkebab.

Ready your blade Jack.

Jack maker of such tools.
To use to stop one from repeating history.
To reclaim honor, or to stop a dishonor.

So Jack, as we all accept without proof,
accept from the wishing well of hope and wishes to already be true,
we say that Mike Mckay is a doer and completer, and not a fool and not
a dishonest or lier person.
We also assume that what Mike reports not only has his stamp of ok,
but his also insight of its truth and validness.
So numbers numbers numbers,
who has the numbers, we have the numbers,
but where are the numbers from,
from Mike.
So Jack, will you follow Richard to turn away and leave,
never to need to know any more.
Accept gain and lost at the same time,
plus not peace of mind, but the devil in the details no more to know.

So Jack rejoice and rejuvenate your flagging spirit.
The deed is done, the cast is already poured,
no more hammering of the metal needed,
don't touch, wait for a cooling down period.
Then the finish product will be displayed, by Mike Mckay.

Not days, most likely not weeks, a month or 2 or 3, but not a year.

Enough time for you to ready the blade, just in case.
