What kind of response did you get?

Oh, a kind of a noncommittal response, as I recall. This was some year ago when I stated this. And I assure you, I also don't want to pretend that I made any terribly great moral issue of this with anybody, because after all, it was not - I'm not a director, and it wasn't my business. It was simply my opinion. And so I expressed my opinion about it, and that was that. Obviously my opinion wasn't going to change anything.

It bothered me. It always has bothered me, very much. I have never, never said anything publicly about this, of course, because of the family relationship, but I do think that it's a wrong thing.

What has surprised me, as a matter of fact, is that there has been no fuss, so far as I'm aware, absolutely no public criticism of this at all. I've never seen any public criticism of it. It's surprised me.

Possibly it's because there aren't too many people who are in a position to make that kind of criticism, without impugning themselves.

I would think that critics, you know, some of those so-called newspaper critics, the watchdogs and so forth, the magazines and so on, would have, at some point or other, raised this question.
