Let me phrase that a bit more strongly!

Amy, I would really like to hear your thoughts. You are one of the people whose opinions I really like to hear. I know that I have a part in how we go here. I've tried to address it. If you have ideas, I want to hear them.

I answered with a "simple" yes because I thought anything else would quickly fall into defensive. Yes, but...... In W's perception, I think the answer is clearly yes.

Not all of the "harem" are always doing the warm fuzzie thing. There have been many pretty powerful challenges, and difficult questions.

Anyway, don't stay away! I won't be offended, and I value your input.
