Yes I did. However, the reason that startles libturds like you is that
you and your ilk would never admit to a mistake.

My point, that was obviously beyond your mental capability, was that
without the tree-huggers convincing liberal politicians, who were
selling their soul for votes; that the rest of the population would be
better off if they were to only buy new products that were blessed by
the tree-huggers. Thus the market became permeated with similar
looking, but inferior and more costly products.

That is the reason for my buying the wrong tubes.
