  So
thus, "now that Ext Block has been patched Jihan will not support it". It was not
intended to be read as you are reading it. I guess I should have said "Jihan CAN not
support it".
Thanks.

Gotcha.  Yeah , you made it sound that you were saying Jihan publicly stated that he
already changed his mind, which is not the case. 

We can agree to disagree on HK.  to me its just more evidence Core is full of BS.

If Jihan publicly stated/tweeted that he is now against "Patched Ext Blocks", it would be
obvious to the community why, and it would hurt his credibility with big blockers, IMO.

But I would like to add that the fact that he hasn't tweeted "I love Patched Ext Blocks",
could also be equally as telling. If I was Jihan and truly innocent and being set up, I would
agree to using "Patched Ext Blocks" and tweet that and shove it up my enemies asses. Since
he has not it makes me wonder, since it would be to his advantage, IMO. Which then adds
to my increasing belief that Jihan may truly be against SegWit because it hurts an ASICBoost
future that he has already invested load of money into.

As for the HK agreement, we can agree to disagree. I wasn't there and I really don't know
what was going on. All I know is that the whole community was watching that event and
ultimately no one was going to be happy, since the situation is too complex for a spur of
the moment written napkin agreement.
