Oh, don't be so hard on them, sure they're crusaders (though not in
the sense of the European military adventures some centuries back or
the popular music group known in better days as Jazz Crusaders.)
They aren't going to be as hasty and radical, but I bet you won't be
disappointed, they're on their way.  (Now if a certain Redmond, Wa.
software company were in the host, I'd sweat it, but "business people"
here seems to be actually a pretty respectable assemblage.)
