re: Still missing the issue
Nope. I don't know how you can sit there and type away promoting a system that uses Solids.
It's a system I think is fine. There are alternatives, however.
You, on the otherhand, have been outraged by the use of solids. You were lambasting Constellation for using them. Direct also uses them, yet magically - now that's a trade your happy to make.
Sorry - it just isn't a tenable situation. You're the only one to have put yourself in this situation - lambast the use of something, then promote it.
