Hi Aurino and Harv,

I am privileged to have met and gotten to know Dick personally, so I know what I am talking about. When it comes to ideas, Dick is a snarling, tenacious junk yard dog, especially if the ideas are not well thought out, or if there is any hint of deception.

But when it comes to people, he is a delightfully warm, friendly, and gentle soul. I am proud and happy to be able to call him my friend.

You just need to make sure you don't take his attacks on ideas as personal attacks. He never means them that way. And, if you weather the attacks and re-examine the ideas under attack, you will most often (at least in my experience) find that they probably deserved the treatment.

Warm regards,

Paul
