It pains me to say it, but he’s a better source than you think.

I hope it’s not true, because I know exactly what it feels like.
Any one of us can say TCX is going to fold in the morning, the writings been on the walls for days now, but we remain optimistic. He's merely an opportunist looking for a few more follows because he 'broke' the news first.
