I disagree. It's a touchy subject, and we know it, but kudos to CO for being up-front and not sugar coating it.

The "riff-raff" term was coined here on FT, by FTers, not CO. In hearing of CO's response, they referred to it as the "so-called 'riff-raff' Plat" because they didn't devise the term.

I'd much rather hear their real thoughts on a subject than a sugar-coated, evasive answer.
