Honestly, he is a good guy, whom Deb & I personally interact with, when he comes up here.
He would do anything for anyone, His kindness knows no bounds.
We've eaten together, he's bought us double bone in Iowa pork chops, beef liver & tongue & even guanciale !! Probably forgetting more.
I'd not hesitate to say, that Richard, thinks the best of most people & situations, very positive in general & like most, can not fathom anybody, taking advantage of anyone, for personal gain.
I guess, that was reflected in his original, .... "can't believe" this scenario.
Of course, it's totally your call, just thought I'd throw my .02 out there in an effort to give you my personal knowledge of Richard.
Best regards, to You & Your's.
I've no doubt that Wabi is a decent and fundamentally good guy. I just don't understand how he can stand for a guy who I know to be a thief, and then want to be part of a game where the object we're sending around is the very one the same SOB destroyed on me.
