Something along those lines is what I had in mind. I'll happily admit I didn't
type exactly either of those phrases and apologise for any confusion engendered,
but honestly, I know what I meant... I meant that your model is weakly executed,

Now then, do YOU know what this mysterious contest is that Ross says I meant to
refer to but that he won't identify? Or why?
Or am I going to have to google for that too?
