Dont be too harsh on RA

I have known RA for a number of years and have admired the way he has built up ET into the respected company it was. The why's and wherefores of its demise can be debated ad infinitum, blame can be allocated in any direction the author feels fit. All I know is I have seen the man struggle in his efforts to keep it going and the stress it put him under. I don't know, or understand, the details of this rescue bid or what the motives of the "rescuers" are, only time will tell (sorry about that!). It would be a decision he made with regret(if he actually had a choice) - imagine losing 24yrs of achievement in such a short period!?

Funny how his Ferrari (now ruined along with his house in the floods!) causes so much comment and excitement, I don't suppose it was worth much more than a couple of days overheads for the business!!
