Did you honestly miss the part where I said that my comments were not 
meant to be consured as a demand that the producer produce for the 
consumer rather they are merely and attempt at explaining why some 
consumers hesistate to jump into something they know little about to 
become producers themselves or were you just being argumentative (or 
worse - mean :-)? I'm curious because I fail to see where you have 
reason to accuse me of demanding a fix during this discourse and quite 
frankly I resent the accusation.
