No one was being rude.

But you do seem to take offense at everything. Sorry if the word ignore is so offensive to you, but I would have read it a different way if it had been written toward me.

There was a reason that BP was called down to deal with the situation. Even the caustic RG was not able to do what BP would insist should be done. Nor with the kind of authority that BP would do it with. That should have been evidence enough that his status was already secure.

You may not have seen it at the time. And at the time I did not see it as much as that incident would have revealed, but I could see it at least a little. Maybe in your neck of the woods at the time (People's Republic of Texas? ) it was not so evident. I have no way of knowing. I do know that BP was always on the move. Often out of town somewhere. Of course they wouldn't be telling me where.

When JB moved to OKC, I sort of thought there would be a new top dog, but that didn't even seem to be true. From what I could see, it was always BP.
