Whatever mistakes and/or sins that Warren and Lou may have committed, i certainly don’t think of either of them as bad people. The entire legal purpose of a corporation is to provide a separate legal entity from the investors, so the argument that they are separate businesses is legally correct. So, all these attacks on lou and warren are all about whether they have an obligation to be transparent about their businesses when their operations “intersect” and how he’s dealt with these accusations.
I think you guys handled this “outing” poorly, but when people are publicly attacking you and your privacy concerns aren’t just a bunch of hot air, i can see how you might make some bad decisions out anger/panic/stress.
i certainly don’t hold feel hostility toward you guys and hope that i’ve handled myself in a way that didn’t add to your pain.
I look forward to this painful period to end and remember when the GPWA fell apart between CAC2002 and GIGSE 2003, it was Lou that help bring those in the community who were tired of the fighting over to CAP. It was Lou who turned a fishing trip with a few friends, into some of the best events this industry has had. Thanks for all your hard work and i hope people stop throwing their anger toward you and warren.
