Why do you challenge the recollections of others when you freely admit

Bob,
All of us are getting older (including you) and memory becomes
subject to parity errors. I am surprised you think yours is any
better than the rest of ours.
Also there was at least one step Bob S omitted. so he was not 100
percent right. I would not ask such a question if I was 100 percent
sure. I dropped a(n) acquisition and I will freely admit it. What's
the big deal ? The 90's saw a great deal of take over and mergers and
the like.
Get over it.
