I agree 100%, SF – but cannot easily forget that a significant number of fans on these pages were, even in those profligate days, claiming a ‘lack of ambition’ and demanding that even more be spent!
(I cannot stand ‘magic money trees’ – there ain’t no such animal.)
I think it was AWG who has written more than once that ‘spending other people’s money is easy.’ On that point, I must heartily agree.
My problem is extravagant claims which never became reality and budget management which was feeble at best.
