I am a team player on my own terms. I decide whether or not to
play on a team and the degree to which I am willing to
subordinate. Someone else deciding for me is a form of slavery.
MVP is biased.
I would rather not. It would not be pleasant for Mr. Gates
considering the amount of garbage I have had to put up with over the
years because of Mr. Gates and his flunkies.
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
