I don't know the guy, but... consider the power dynamic. PG sends him a sales pitch and the guy pushes back. What's he supposed to do, fall all over himself and say "where do I sign"? No, he says, "yeah, maybe". Wouldn't you do the same if someone came to your door looking to sell you something?

> Wouldn't you do the same if someone came to your door looking to sell you something? My usual reaction is "what else d'ya got?"--until they run out of "else"s. This way, the situation is reframed as them not having anything I like, rather than me not being willing to accept what they have--and it's then much easier to just politely end the conversation.
