They're probably also interested in having an actual product to write

Helmar, you must surely feel that we are clueless, since this is about

our heads screwed on correctly.

Btw, was your post supposed to be an example of that professionalism 
that you were pining for? It sounded a bit angry (the kind of anger 
that can piss off dedicated people).
