Please do not put words in my mouth. What I have said is that "I am not 
persuaded that the goal as presented is a sound one, but those who are should 
certainly follow their bliss." It is true that I have not offered you unqualified 
approbation-- although why you would expect it or give a tinker's dam about my 
opinion for that matter I do not know -- but neither have I declared myself 
opposed to your scheme or taken an adversarial tone. I, with others, have 
discussed your project in this forum at your own invitation, and the questions I 
have raised were sincere and constructive. Neither have I taken an adversarial 
tone.

Furthermore, kindly do not evoke me as poster child for the visionless 
naysayers who you believe oppose you; I assure I have not understood what you are 
proposing anywhere near well enough to be accorded that distinction.
