I don't see that the opinions of MVPs are any or more less valid than anyone else's on this issue. There are a lot of very bright, very talented people here who are not MVPs. (And I'm not saying that out of envy, because I was one for several years). Peter is of course free to say whatever he likes but IMO it was almost a non sequitir to bring MVP status into the discussion.

The party who asked me to stay mum, indirectly, was Naomi herself. I think it's safe to say she has not reversed her position.
