See, I'm always interested in these first two sentences, but they are always followed by the ad hominem third sentence. I've always wanted to hear more about the first two but never get it, which makes me doubt your seriousness and intent. Now I'll just assume that's because it's not analysis but opinion, which is fine to express, but doing so five times a day doesn't transform it into analysis.
