We all know that Ton is the unbelievable extraordinary and polite man, and I think I sometimes should learn from him, how to talk with those 'strangers' who do not appreciate Open Source etc. Best example of this super-nice reaction was sent few emails before. But I'm going to say something about different thing: Your comment Ichthyo is just nailing the situation I think. I share your imagination in that matter and it perfectly match everything I observe. I liked it so much, that I will forward it to my best students. I really love the picture you've portrayed. So funny and nice! Thank you, and as always, LONG LIVE BLENDER!!!
