[Vision2020] Challenge to Crabtree

[Sunil Ramalingam]

Gary,,

With regard to your statement:

'What I will not do is recognize that their little performance is in some 
way good for the community or the country as a whole.'

Do you think what you refer to as a 'little performance' is bad for the 
community or simply has no effect at all?

Sunil
