Foolish. If there was no money involved, no one would be asking

You're in first year; you don't know everything. Yes, those diagrams may
seem 'krappy', but they obviously serve some kind of purpose.

Did it ever occur to you that Robert might be subscribed to this list? I
know a number of staff who are - best tone it down a little.
