Yeah, as I said to Bill, it was an unwarranted conjecture. 
However, you can be an argumentative bastard, and rather a bunch 
of wowsers could see where the logical completion of the 
argument was heading, and rather than being caught short at the 
crunch time, sought to have you curtailed to save themselves a 
little face.
