I'm curious about how this process went, Mike. I would find it utterly
stunning if my boss walked in to my office tomorrow and said "Dave, we have
some folks from our key competitor coming in tomorrow, I was wondering if
you could spend the day with them and explain all the finer points of our
premier product".

Not intending to bash you, but was it really just that easy for them?
