Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.  Here you have a guy in
management who is not only open to suggestions but who is even
*anxious* to hear specific ways in which they can improve their 
product, and all you can do is say "forget it, you don't stand a 
chance".  I guess it's more fun to complain about why something 
is a piece of junk than it is to offer constructive suggestions 
on how it can be made better.
