Hey opihikao,

I think I may be repeating myself content-wise with my previous question to you. But perhaps it will make more sense to you this time. What is wrong with my rewording below:

""Again, if this protest had never happened in the first place, TMT and all of us (at our taxpaying expense) would not be going through this excruciating exercise.""

If my rewording ignores the state's responsibility, it may be that your wording ignores the protestors'.

Or as a famous fictional character has said (would work better if you were named Maude, I admit):

"This is a very complicated case, Maude. You know, a lotta ins, a lotta outs, a lotta what-have-yous. And, uh, a lotta strands to keep in my head, man. Lotta strands in old Duder's head."

I consider the TMT a done deal--in that it is over and will not happen. But to blame the State only...?

Cheers,
Kirt
