I would like to express my deep admiration and esteem for you. The tenacity, competence and intelligence that your project demonstrates is what this planet needs. You are a great hacker and you have all my admiration.

For me (I'm in Italy) the best part was the request: " would you like to switch now or in two weeks?". I use the same with my kids: "would you like one portion of broccoli or two portions?". This approach gives the

I checked your profile and blog after reading this discussion. Now I feel some regret posting that anyway, as I think my comment did not add anything valuable to this discussion and was only instrumental to reprove you, a person who I don&#
