Yeah I originally had a different ending to the letter, but after last year's debacle and the darts I had to dodge against my hard-line C&R stance (even from guys on this board), I decided I better put my politically correct hard hat on instead and came up with a more palatable plea to the public.

Thanks for noticing!
