Don't confuse Steve with anyone claiming 100 percent a month, or even
20 percent a month. ^_^

I have that, and more. It's not the new ideas that get shot down,
just the patently absurd claims. I happen to think Steve's
mechanical systems make money; I just couldn't stand the DDs.

Gee, I'd already lost my virginity by then. ^_^ What does *that*
