You bring up some good points. Maybe I should have provided feedback
instead of making a comment. I should have realized there is
crossover among groups and I really didn't even think of that. 

I sure don't want competition and do want cooperation! Anyway, I'm
glad you realized there was no malicious intent. And the article
certainly has some good info and should be part of our resources.

The "Big scheme of things" is a good way to put it.
