Sorry John, I didn't mean to include you. You've been the best I've 
experienced.

Hear that everyone? My apologies. John's a really good one, and won't 
shoot you in the foot, or anywhere else.

No, I didn't mean to imply that anything is intentionally distorted, 
just that we sign away our right to final approval, which you have 
always extended anyway, thank you.

Can I post all this to the list?
