I didn't see where Oren demanded that anyone help him. And you all are
free to pass on his request totally. It was Warren to chose to jump in and
soon after spent several paragraphs lecturing him, accusing him of being
dishonest and treating him like a child. I think he was totally out of
line. And your defense of it is just as bad. The arrogance is
unbelievable!
