Seems to be a lotta "Holier Than Thou" attatude's around here. I don't believe for one minute that he decided to start poaching all of a sudden. A man with 33 yrs expierience and an unblemished record I would at least give the benifit of the doubt. Maybe he F^%&$%up and tried to cover his A$$. After dealing with Some of the people I've dealt with in the past30 yrs I cant say I blame him too much.
I'm not trying to cover for the guy' I don't know him from Adam. But I don't think an apple spoils with 33 yrs expierience. Besides he said in his note he would pay the price reguardless. Sounds like a man ofhis wordto me.

Just my .02
