If it was Microsoft's intention to turn people into puppets by giving them MVP awards, they certainly failed! LOL Some of the toughest questions and pressure they get comes from MVPs. The program is to recognize those who go beyond the call in providing free peer support for various Microsoft products. If MS has an ulterior motive, it is to save money by letting the user community provide most support so they don't have to pay $$ for MS employees to do that (as was the case until about 10 years ago).
