I'm equally sure you will form a unique and special group, but maybe we* 
have thought of and already discarded your points.

* For "we" perhaps read "SLUG", "the other folks in Scotland", or maybe 
even the Goverment but you can certainly conclude that I'm not 
interested in listening to a group of people who think themself above 
listening to me should my point of view differ from theirs.

Thanks,
