Well, when the word is out that a new super engine has been developed, by a totally unknown and in (almost) no time, then that's just crying wolf to many here. They've seen it, believed it, and been fooled more than once, so one would have to be a bit of an idiot to take the bait over and over. Therefore you should forgive them if they don't exactly jump overboard with excitement right away, they must be _sure_ first. But hey, all this fuzz is only because the engine is so very strong, the programmer shouldn't take it as an insult but rather as a complement! (the guy is unknown they say, so it couldn't very well be personal) I think you may have a point that some are jealous, I know I am! (well maybe envious is more accurate :). But don't we all want to make stronger engines, and do it fast even!? I certainly have no problems admitting that! ;) Though AFAIK, this isn't related to whether or not it is a clone debate. -S.
