Sorry for interrupting, but can someone please stop this smear campaign? It
is bad enough that this happens publicly time after time, but as far as I
could tell the youtube clip mentioned in the first post is a) created on a
special website for that purpose (whether it is tasteful or tatstless is at
this point irrelevant) but many have used it already, b) accoding to
youtube the clip was uploaded by Richard Wells (not Wuster) and c) Wuster
receives unpleasant critisism in the clip as well (contrary to Wells).
I have no stomach for this and I think I am not alone.
