Jeremy,

That's a great assessment, but it doesn't really have anything to do
with what I am talking about.  This isn't about having invites,
coveted or not.  It's about what _I_ am choosing to do with them

No offense, but I almost put a caveat in that message about what you
might have to say.  If you aren't interested in participating, fine. 
But quite frankly, I'm not a dumbass.  I have thought of some of these
issues already.
