Sampuan,

I explained my thoughts on this precisely. Please stop stating things contrary to the unambiguous statement of what is intended. You thought of the conflict only in terms of the war and then everyone going their separate ways. Was I ambiguous when I stated that I would get back whatever I wanted if you dragged the war? Call it petty if you must, but I think we should get back our science and so on so that we are not unduly injured by your choices. This is how we are going about it instead of sitting and pumping for weeks on end. We have more fun this way, just as you had more fun by dragging the war. Look at it this way, once we have stripped you out, you will be a more appealing war target and can get wars more easily.

:D
