Really, on whose behalf are you speaking, I certainly didn't think Andrew
is horrible.

I suspect the issue is more in this saying I think I saw at the Jo'burg
Airport..“If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go
together.”.

I don't think Andrew fully appreciates this statement IMHO, and I think if
he did he would get more support for his ideas which are pretty good.

However the water have been churned let's see what happens on the global
level...its looking better on the front...(-:.

Best regards
