I don't think I'm any more curious than the average man in the street, and
I can completely understand their privacy stance. OTOH I can't help but feel that a well managed media appointment to give a clear statement of MS's

We don't have any right to have the insight, but it is human nature to be curious
and I'm sure there must be a burden of maintaining the more or less
secretive approach which could be relieved with a dignified press report.

He doesn't even owe his fame and fortune to his fans. That came from his driving ability.
The only people who owe their fame and fortune to fans are reality TV stars.
