You're probably going to want to go into a little detail about why not.

Tom is correct that Mark shouldn't overreact quite so badly to this, but
in turn, the exact people you sent 7 copies to last night are people who
depend on your professional computing judgement as a company, and they're
prone to be even less happy about being in legacy handcuffs after another
one of these than they were already.

It has?  Seems like it's done this Sorceror's Apprentice Mode thing every
time you've sent something.

I would just farm it the hell out and be done with it.

Back on list, since you said you'd sent this to the list... even though I
haven't seen it there.
