well, I don't remember saying that I agreed with who was Steve backing up. I just respect the fact that, even when there were (are) huge chances he was putting his credibility in line he chose to back up a friend. I don't know you, but I always stand out for my friends, and therefore I respect what he did even though I disagree with it. If I were in his place, I would have kept my mouth shut, but as I said, I'm sure he knew what was in line and he chose to go on with it. For that, I respect him, it takes balls.

See Will, I really have respect for you because I really respect smart people, however, I gotta say you only see things in terms of black and white and you never notice the infinite shades of gray. That's why, although I like to hear what you say and many times I agree with a lot of things you say, it's very hard for me to agree with you in everything because of this black or white behavior. Maybe you should take some distance and see things in a more objective and less passionate way, I'm sure it will help you a lot, people behavior and relationships NEVER equals maths where 1+1 is always 2
