[AusRace] "Commission agents"

Len,

I was just thinking, "I'm out of my depth here. Better keep mum."

I'm just a simple sandgroper.
My take is, "than I do", with the "do" understood.
I do, however, also go along with Rob's idiom take.

Cheers,

John

Again, you know more than *I*,

* I forgive your intended error of grammar, acknowledging that it logical to
treat 'than' as a conjunction rather than as a preposition but claim the
idiom is on my side.
