Peter, I'm going to make this brief. I have no problems with you calling my posts annoying, or anything else for that matter. I do realise I have the ability to bring out the worst in people at times, and for that I truly am sorry. But please do not blame me for anything more than that. Now, I realise people do spend a lot of time, investment and money in these things. As times, you could think it's not all for nothing. But intention does not guarantee performance, Lucas has spent an outrageous amount and look at what he's produced.

If it adds one name to the tally you can add mine for wanting to see your version. If you were to give me a couple of months I could fund a meaningful amount, and am prepared to do so. I know you can still contribute your knowledge to other's in their efforts here. And heck I'd be a fool to say you're not right that I may have said the wrong thing at times. But that does not excuse the behaviour of others on this forum, you can not point the finger at me and blame me for the post that Daniel posted, for instance.

In conclusion, though it pains me to say this - the decision as to whether you continue your project is entirely up to you, and I do not intend to change your mind. Maybe you are angered at me because of your obsessive devotion to all of this. You haven't angered me, what has angered me is to see this forum and the name of preservation used illogically to somehow blanket and hide the grim reality of producing uniquely butchered versions. Why the rest of you cannot see that? Maybe you're angered at me because of my own faults, showing my failure to the preservation. Maybe it's both.
