To be clear about my opinion of NP- absolutely thought he was the right person at the right time for this company. Rare, in that he was not bound by pre-conceived notions.
IMO, he was a good man whose character & resolve allowed him to "manipulate the truth " today because he knew history would exonerate him tomorrow
Without him we would have nothing to bitch about, worry about or wonder about as pro 140 would still be on the shelf.
