Just another third-party's perspective, Mr. Ward. David Jones is a
straight-up guy - NOT a "smartass" (if you are going to use our slang, use
it properly). Please, take a deep breath, back off and re-read your text.
While I think MOST people WOULD read your words as praise of Mr. Esposito,
it is CERTAINLY possible to draw the opposite conclusion as well.

Which word is to be emphasized - "too", or "cannot"? Therein lies the
difference in meaning? Isn't our common language a wonderful thing!  :-)  No
flames, please!!
