Of course. However, we had some discussions, then David essentially
said `this won't work', and people were still discussing exactly the
same thing as if David hadn't said anything.

The most efficient way of doing things is to listen to others, not
ignoring the arguments. Sometimes David's replies are lengthy and
hard to understand, but noone except you has explicitly said `I don't
understand'. It's obviously much easier to skip such answers instead
of trying to grasp them. I must confess that this sometimes happens
to me also.
