My thoughts exactly.  At least, my initial thoughts.  However,
after stopping to think about it, I have to side with Chris (if
sides are being taken; which I sincerely hope they're not.)

Here's a guy who's devoted an enormous amount of time, effort, love
and money into the tapetree project.  Then, by a careless remark,
he sees its future put in jeopardy.  Chris is 100% right (IMHO), in
stamping down firmly *now*, to avoid things getting out of hand. 
Marcel was probably a little unfortunate to get caught in the
backlash but I hope he can understand why Chris reacted as he did.
