And I forgot it in my previous reply: Those words are bad enough. But did you read the article??? The context in which he said this is his own resignation! Had he resigned years ago I would have applauded! But now he is like the captain who runs away from the ship he has sunk himself. Before running away he took as much gold as he could (the negotiated golden extra-bonuses he gets). And his crew??? Uhm, oh... well? For THEM all he had were these words. Still think is is right?
