No, he isn't. Kind of clueless would be more like it. I simply *had* to post
something after reading all of the latest ICGA journal, and if you think my post
is about making trouble, you have *no* idea on the kind of posts and drafts I
*didn't* post :) - a few of them I liked quite a lot in fact .. ;) .

PS: Has anyone else ever noticed the excessive usage of the word "respectively"
in the journal btw?
