You deeply disappoint me, Mike.
Not only do you misrepresent many cogent, well thought out positions =

articles detailing an explaining in-depth technical concerns=E2=80=A6you =
also seem to fancy yourself more capable of reading into the intentions =
of someone who disappeared from the scene years ago, before we even were =
fully aware of many things we now know that bring the original =
=E2=80=9Cplan=E2=80=9D into question.
I ask of you, as a civilized human being, to stop doing this divisive =
crap. Despite your protestations to the contrary, YOU are the one who is =
proposing a radical departure from the direction of the project. Also, =
as several of us have clearly stated before, equating the fork of an =
open source project with a fork of a cryptoledger is completely bogus - =
there=E2=80=99s a lot of other people=E2=80=99s money at stake. This =
isn=E2=80=99t a democracy - consensus is all or nothing. The fact that a =
good number of the people most intimately familiar with the inner =
workings of Satoshi=E2=80=99s invention do not believe doing this is a =
good idea should give you pause.
Please stop using Bitcoin as your own political football=E2=80=A6for the =
sake of Bitcoin=E2=80=A6and for your own sake. Despite your obvious =
technical abilities (and I sincerely do believe you have them) you are =
discrediting yourself and hurting your own reputation.
