So we can be absolutely clear on this point -- this, too, is entirely a 
straw man -- I never asserted the position, and don't hold to the same. 
  I affirmatively invite Richard to actively participate in the

than all of us combined.  Disagreeing with his conclusions, or the form 
of the arguments he makes states nothing to the contrary.
