He should explain his entire marketing strategy to us, because we are key stakeholders in this process. Yes. I expect a 30 page report on my desk with appropriate market demographics explaining how the grey issue was come to. I demand answers, McKee, and I want them now, dammit!

My god I have not laughed that hard in a while...my face hurts.
I admit I'm one of those who got his feet wet in Jake's infamous thread but
after reading this, it sure puts it all in perspective. Calum, you should write
