MP: Arlo, with respect, if you are going to insist on putting words in my mouth (and then with such audacity as to put them in quotes), please be sure they are mine words, not yours. You misquote me, don't understand what I've been saying, and are going off half cocked as if I'm attacking MoQ. This action only substantiates what I've been trying to convey, and if you understood what I've been saying you'd see that. MP ---- "Don't believe everything you think."
