That is a bizarre perspective. Where do you think UA gets the money to pay your salary? Thin air?

I'm curious if this is the new UA. Perhaps an email to SMI/J might help clear things (since he reads every mail).

That arguement holds no affermative weight, it's just extranious info that has no argumentitive value except in the bumper sticker category of catch phrases with little no no actual worth.
