Oh boy. I am afraid you are reading me all wrong. Do you really think professional reputations and saving face matter? If you think I am wrong about something, you should say so. And why. I assumed that’s what you were doing, not editing your posts to help me! At any rate, I will stay on the issues until my energy, not my professional reputation, runs out. Mostly because there is no existential question here.
