I love the way you summarized. BTW, Mark Silver is my new favorite Mark in the world. He surpassed my cousin Mark, because my cousin didn't invite me to his BBQ throwdown:) @Molly, What you just said about the strategic value of NO is what I wish I would have had the skill to have written for my blog post.
