Derek is the one who wouldn't disengage. I tried to. But since you say you like him, I don't think I could convince you otherwise. So you wont join me in the let's bash Derek's train but you will join in on the let's bash Leonard's train.  That's ok, I guess. Are you not perpetuating the thread? Why not take it of-list? I'd be happy to address any questions or issues you may have.
