actually Guido i didn't intend my post to be a response to your comments in particular, i feel like i understood your motives in posting them and i didn't get the idea you were antagonizing Ae over it at all. so to clarify my post is not in response to any perceived subtext running through this topic, believe me i am terrible at guessing and reading subtext on the internet, i was just speaking personally with no particular reference to what anyone had said before
also, i'm a bit drunk
cheers all around
EDIT: so yes just to nail it down, guido i think your comments were well in line, I'm not trying to do anything subtle there's no sleight of hand here

just reacting to an attitude... anyway I think you are probably very right in what you had said regarding the ETA, but in my mind the fact that Ae was busy becoming a father trumps all expectations. Maybe better forward planning was called for there, that could be very true...i'm just happy the thing came together after all! and not surprised either. We are a juggernaut of the electronic scene and have much to be proud of. solidarity my twoism bro's!
EDIT AGAIN: way more than a bit drunk. i'd better get my dumb ass over to the post when your drunk thread.
