I've gotta second Daniel's words - sooner or later, Wingfoot will
implode on his own.  He doesn't need my help - and he can't have my
anger.  That would give him more power over me than I'm willing to allow
him.  So he gets only my pity.  

On the other hand, if my name isn't on that list I may have to sue him
for neglect.  :-)

Walk softly,
Jim
