I couldn't agree more, and would love to see Greg take off with this project,
but I don't see it quite the same as you do. He has changed colors quicker than
a chameleon and not been completely honest about this. I think it is good that
he is discussing the whole thing in detail, and ready to continue discussions on
it. He just wrote:

"There's your problem -- you think I'm "proposing solutions" when I'm just
brainstorming as a means of learning."

and

"I am trying to learn from the experts."

But this is in complete contradiction with what he initially said:

"BTW, I wasn't intending to get into a discussion about the proposal here. I was
asking for volunteers."

I think it is commendable that he has revised his position but dishonest to
claim that that was always the case.
