He does a good job in running the turns. And I do thank him for that.

You get one thing totally wrong here: Rich is selling his product to us,
and we are his customers.
I've heard no one complaining, that he could do it better.

An analogy comes to my mind (and I'm gonna get crucified for this):

Microsoft produces and sells OS's. They do their job. Still they get
blamed for not fixing the bugs in their products.
No one tells those who complain: "Why don't you write your own OS".

Bye, Tom
