Mike I am deeply troubled by your comments.  Why would you make such 
assertions.  Knowing your purpose would help in formulating the correct 
response.  Secondly if you are going to make such statements there are more 
effective ways to make your point.  Surely you could include more concrete 
examples.  Perhaps the the use of color to highlight the more important 
points would also be useful.

Sincerely (engineering tongue firmly in cheek)
