[CAUT] Young Chang - Weber with Wapin in Anaheim

[David Denison]

Can't we all just get along?  I think Wim's opinion was not damning or 
"dishonest" in any way, especially since he explained the circumstances as 
not being ideal to properly judge.  I imagine you have alot riding on this 
and being a little defensive is understandable.

Just as in our anatomy and opinions; everybody has one!
