I have a responsibility to keep the show moving, I had 4 to 5 people with their hands raised in the room ready to talk. Macman gets a lot of time on the show and I don't belive he was offended at all. So althought I respect your right to give your opinion at the end of the day I have a responsibilit to everyone who is listeing live or later to keep the show interesting and moving. I reserve all editorial rights on the show. Thank you. Andrew thanks for your commnets.
