Long time no see, Tony. Too long if you ask me, glad to see you around again.

Good idea. And in the fullness of time, I think he'd realise you're both right.
In the context of world events it's not a tragic thing (what's going on in
Russia, Darfur, Iraq, Palestine, etc., you pick it... these days is pretty
tragic) but in the context of LEGO, the color change IS one of the most tragic
things to happen to us in a long time.
So you're both right. But as you say, dwelling on it won't help.
