some of it does flow from that mason comment about M being all that matters (and can't remember if harrington had said that to him, that would be hearsay anyway). i think mason spoke before he thought deeply in that instance, something that has afflicted us all at some time or other.

I tried to find the post without success, but I'm sure it's in the archives somewhere. Maybe someone better with the search function can find it.

In any case in one post Mason said something along the lines of "I'm seeing Dan later and I'll ask him." Then he followed up with another post basically saying "I asked and he said speed doesn't matter." I agree it is hearsay and think how the question was posed would make a big difference in the answer. I'm sure, given the chance, that I could easily pose the question in such a way as to almost guarantee a different answer.
