Marsha:
I'm making no such suggestion.

I'm sure this must be very helpful.

I remember you mentioning it.

Marsha:
You're whining again.  You accuse me of turning you into a braggart?  I think 
not.  Those are the patterns of your communication.  For one who brags about 
their intellectual competency,  I think your understanding of the MoQ is 
shallow.   I accept you as someone who cares about the MoQ, but I do not accept 
you as a MoQ authority.

Marsha:
No.  I think you're mostly style, with little substance.

Marsha:
You shot a comment to me in the '[MD] Ah-ha Qua Ah-ha' thread and then refused 
to explain it.  I think it is you who are playing games.
