Quoting more severely trimmed, following Raul's objection to volume in

ignore. Sorry for wasting time.

What claims are you talking about?
Things like 'You've claimed that non-free, as it currently exists

"not inaccurate"? Isn't that "accurate"? If you think those numbers
are accurate, you are beyond reason.
[... NM questions ...] How is this relevant to the current thread?
In <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, it was asserted that
there's nothing special about DDs over non-DDs. I disagreed and you
contradicted me. The questions were an attempt to understand why.
