Trying to understand the why?

Mark, I'm trying to understand why you would deliberately malign Kevin's comments:

This appeared in my Email via Facebook and is on your public blog:

"The RunRev blog post also says: "In response to a question in a recent Apple shareholder’s meeting, Jobs said that a HyperCard-like product for the iPad would be a good idea 'though someone would have to build it'". Remembering a keynote presented by Steve Jobs, who associated HyperCard with "bullshit" (see http://www.ihug.org), I have to assume that Jobs' statement is to be taken with a lot of irony. Probably, one is supposed to add "...and it ain't Apple building that HyperCard-like tool!" Also, I have been unable to find any additional references to Jobs' statement on the shareholder's meeting."

Just to be clear, Steve Jobs exact quote was, "There's also rumors about us canceling Hypercard, which is total bullshit." And, this quote was 12 years ago, not a recent shareholder meeting. Your insinuations comparing Hypercard to bullshit are just wrong. I would think you'd want some proof before assuming Kevin is being disingenuous.
