I surrendered long ago. I can't even be bothered reading those post you
talk of now. Nothing will come of them. Walter won't change. D will fester
on for a while but all the good things that it could have been will not see
light of day. D is already lot better than the alternatives and that seems
to be good enough for Walter. Mediocracy rules. There is no desire to aim
higher.
