Nick -

Steve,

 

Why presuppose that the question is anything but a question?

 

Is this a rhetorical question?  (begin recursion)

We *are* talking about Doug here, aren't we? <grin>.

Doug who attributes the clever use of "Big Bold Naivete" to yourself uses it himself in his own special version of  the Socratic (the most famous western philosopher of all?) method.  Admirals and directors of National Laboratories and Google Executives have been brought to their knees by his methods.  What makes you think he can't bring all of FRIAM down as easily?

Oh... also, deliberately misunderstanding Doug provides me with a never ending opportunity to rattle on open ended about anything I feel like.
