Yes - I agree. I did have misgivings about posting speculation about other
peoples' emotional drives.

But I decided to go ahead because I was not trying to say that this was an
accurate assessment, but rather to try to demonstrate that there was reasonable
doubt about their public assessments of their programs' strength.

It's an improper thing to do though. I shouldn't really do it, and neither
should lawyers in court rooms when cross examining the witnesses.
