I don't know if we did or not like you said but I know he would have been flown down here on our private jet and and gotten some serious wine and dine or what ever he likes if I were in charge. But you are right - he may have just said no way. I guess what I am really saying is I didn't see all stops being pulled out and maybe you just cant do that but I am not PC and probably gotten in trouble but call the press, call his Mom, call his wife and kids, call his friends.
At this point I just don't think it makes much difference who we hire we won't get the impact needed.
