How about just commenting that you don't seem to see the depth very
well and how it's all Microsoft's fault that their wonderful 3-D
software database has to be displayed in a 2-D projection.  Blame
Bill Gates (doesn't matter if he has anything whatsoever to do
with it... He's like the technological El Nino) and you'll get
them on your side and they'll nod in agreement with you.
