Except they don't want our product, they want theirs. And even that is a
little questionable. More like Super Billionaire A is bored and needs to
compete with Super Billionares B through R by pissing away tons and tons of
oil money on ringers.

BTW, this is Don Cherry's dream because it will be hard for any European who
is targeted and who is in it for the money to pass up on these offers. I
think Malkin goes back sooner or later, maybe not totally on his own accord.
