You are a credit to your moniker here ... (tres vrai!). Thank you for posting that.

And you have expressed the sentiments of a lot of us here. I, too, would not have minded "loaning" (as it were) my money to QTN if that is what they essentially needed to do with it for the time being. That may have been just fine with me - if I were given the choice and if they were up front about it. I'm an adult ... please treat me like one.

The difference is:

1) Someone comes up to you and asks for some cash after explaining why they need it and how it may possibly benefit you, as well, in the long run - and you say "yes" or "no." Thankyouverymuch.

or

2) They pick your pocket.
