I'm not throwing my weight around, I'm expressing my emotions in a way
that I feel is not offensive to anyone.
And naturally I think my opinions matter - who doesn't? I have fixed it
for myself - until the next time. I was also thinking of other people.
Luiz has taken a position and I am advancing an argument against it. If
Luiz is offended, I regret that - but he hasn't said so.
