[MD] Exist

[MarshaV]

Hi Ian,

All this whining that this is a list dedicated to intellectual discussion is nonsense when every time someone asks a question based on current intellectual patterns they are ridiculed.  It seems if the question cannot be satisfied with a RMP quote, it leaves everyone frightened, speechless.  The sarcasm, irony, parody and insults only demonstrates the shallowness of the MoQ understanding, and helps not one whit.  There seems to be open-minded discussion permitted.  Sad.
