(You seem to have misinterpreted me (my intentions) on a few (relatively minor) points (which is probably why you don't have a reliable model). Not worth getting into, just thought I should flag it for purposes of calibration.

And yeah, I also wouldn't be as tempted to go out of my way to (correctly or incorrectly) defend XiXiDu's (alleged) motivations if we had more/better contrarians.)
