no you are wrong, I believe marketing is very important but I have stopped dreaming. We had already several discussion and the outcome was let's say limited... I would be happy if somebody pushed forward with good ideas and a consistent and good strategy. I no expert, I am interested in marketing and have ideas but no time... LO is probably 70-80% marketing and that is something they do quite well. Well I am not sure if I personally would support their aggressive approach, especially because I think that competition against us is stupid and completely off topic but that is something else.
