Yes, I know that I will, from time to time, tell you that you can't do something that you really, really, really, really want to do. I will, however, help you figure out how to do something similar that you can do. Trust me, it is abundantly clear that I know more about these things that you do. And it's a hell of a bigger pain in your ass when I come in after the fact than the ten minute "how can we do this?" phone call would have been.
You forgot to credit Bruce.
