Quote: WireWireWire "Once again, its not my job to figure that out. It doesn't mean I can't have a negative opinion on a decision made, based on the facts at hand. Which is - Burgess' personal success never did anything for those around him, because aside from 1 solitary year, all Souths were, were nearly men. We've had that ad nauseum.'"
Look, you're right - you're welcome to an opinion, however gloomy. I just wonder about the absolute certainty you have that it will all end so badly. I'm willing to accept that it could end badly. But I prefer to think that Sam has looked at us, decided there is a job that could be done and offered up his services. If the reports of him requesting training videos and keeping Gary Chambers up til 2 am are right, then he certainly means business. All the testimonials he's received from down under since the announcement are positive. Surely the winter will pass better with a sense of optimism than utter dread?
My final point - sorry about this but my inner John Cleese just won't let this go - nausea is first declension - the accusative takes -am. So ad nause[i
