I've got your "I Agree with AG-Schnozz" t-shirt on the way.

This is a testiment to the improved and much thinner AA/IR
filter on the 5D senser. It was only a matter of time before
that got improved. This is probably the biggest resolution
handicap of the Olympus E-1.  Look at the difference between the
5D and the 1Ds. Essentially the same pixel count, but the
apparant resolution improvement is such that Stevie Wonder could
probably see it.
