Casper, can you elaborate on what you thought the FUD was? Sure - we ramble a lot and opinions are by their nature subjective, but what do you believe was FUD (which generally I take to mean lies?). Was it the ISO story? I think we had most of the broad facts right about that one even if we had to look up the details. Certainly there are enough irregularities around that whole thing to be suspicious. Was it something else? It's all well and good to wave the FUD flag around, but how can we have a discussion if you don't call anything out specifically?
