    Martin,

    I too was rejected from this show with a proposal I thought was perfect. Oh well...

    I'm curious to see what direction they went in.

    Martin, I don't understand why you link to that previous post. I doubt that you didn't get in because of nepotism. (that is the inference right?) Why make that claim after this rejection?

    Friend - Oh no, that isn't my claim at all. The previous post is linked to because it WAS my entry.

    That post and subsequent thread met all of the definitions of traffic highlighted above - that's why I say it was perfect.

    Thanks for letting me know I wasn't clear. I am a poor social sculptor.

    You act like that post is the best thing that's ever happened to you. Stop it. It's getting boring.

    I know, you're right, it may be a bit overplayed on this blog, but whenever it gets linked to someone else leaves a comment.

    Are you the person that left the latest comment? I doubt it, you sound a little smarter, but okay - I'll try and stop.
