I only know Ludis from his postings on this list, but based on these, he
has an extremely accurate and detailed knowledge of the ECM's he is
interested in.  I would be very surprised if he didn't know exactly
what the power budget is in the ECM's he's interested in.

Again, from previous posts by Ludis, he has done more 'homework' than
at least 99% of the list and shared much of it. I know he's smarter than
me, and my response is: please explain more of what you have in mind
here because I don't understand it. There is likely to be something
very interesting here.

I think this is very rude and unwarranted. This was not the wild
speculations of someone who just read the next chapter in his textbook. In
my opinion, reasonable questions and discussion points were posed by one
of the most knowledgeable members of the list, and don't deserve this.

I do not want Ludis' contributions quashed.
