Out of curiosity, _ **Otto** _, do you ever just address the subject of a thread without finding a way to make it more about the poster than the post? If you want to criticize my posting style, rather than the \*content \*of my post, it’s my understanding that the Pit is the place for such things, rather than starting a hijack about me, as opposed to about the OP. Tiresome; very very tiresome.

I just asked a simple question. The _content_ of your post indicated to me that you did not read the thread before posting, since the _content_ of your post is pretty well contradicted by the _content_ of a number of other posts. If you in fact did not read the thread before posting, then that would explain it. If you did read the thread before posting, then I would be interested as to why you think your answer is correct and the answers of several other people are not. As several people stated very clearly, the producer is unable to compel specific performance. Your post seems to be predicated on the idea that he can. If you can support that position, please do so. If I have misunderstood your post, please clarify. My question was about your legal analysis. If you choose to take it personally, that’s on you.

Um, it was predicated on the idea that he cannot. Sorry if there was a communication breakdown somewhere along the line.

Oh dude. Do you even read your \*own \*posts?
