I really can't get too excited over a bunch of folks who continually open threads that are painful, that have been explained in horrible detail, as if they have some new viewpoint. It was done for very good reasons, although we didn't ask your permissions, and it wasn't kept a secret (except maybe that no one wanted to embarrass Matt). Either go back to the mail archives and *find out* why it was done, or please do everyone involved a service and stop this.
