Listen mister, your truth about the MVP program isn't relevant. And I am glad it isn't. Remember, this is Microsoft's program, not yours. You do not have the right to judge or to change the meaning of the program.

Here are the lines from the MVP home page that I believe have already posted before:

Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs) are exceptional technical community leaders from around the world who are awarded for voluntarily sharing their high quality, real world expertise in offline and online technical communities. Microsoft MVPs are a highly select group of experts that represents the technical community's best and brightest, and they share a deep commitment to community and a willingness to help others.

Your remarks about my dedication are way out of line and totally irrelevant to this discussion.

Anyway, apologies accepted. But for the future, I advise you to think twice before posting nonsense like that.
