hehehe... not humoring at all.

See, that's where I get in trouble most often. My first response to requests is to *cough* assume *cough* that what is being asked for is what is wanted. It's a reasonable enough place to start such a conversation, but it rarely ends there. Your conversation started in one place and ended in a very different place. Why couldn't it have just started where it ended? Why not ask in the first place what you want in the last place?

As a negotiation tactic, I find that to be extra work. I only have so much work in me... I don't need extra. Being direct has a powerful appeal.
