Just to clarify, John -- I'm getting along with everyone famously, and I'm
not assuming anything. You're assuming I'm assuming something. And while
we're on the subject, I'll get along with _you_ better if you refrain from
making those assumptions.
(I'm kidding. Maybe there is some conspiracy here to paint nice executives
as enfants terribles. I'm not sure. I'm just wondering about other's
experiences, to see if they fit with the feeling around here.)
