[QUOTE="Kishin, post: 4599377, member: 40956"] This was a heavy blow to the respect I've developed for you over the years I've been reading ENWorld and the two I've been posting, Treebore. The above is not like you -at all- from what I've read in that time. $100 is not 'an investment', and you're not a shareholder. There is no entitlement here. You don't know what conversations occurred between Jeff and Gary, or the depth of 'unwritten information' that he was privy to, either. There's a lot of sweeping generalizations and some pretty antagonistic prose there. As Mark and RC have pointed out, making demands of a widow is an incredibly presumptuous thing for anyone to do. Gary has a lot of devoted fans, this is true, but you have to remember that, folks, no matter what, you're [I]fans[/I], not friends or family. That was her [I]husband[/I]. Gail spent a quarter century with the man. I am relatively sure she has a much greater claim on knowledge of his wishes and disposition of his legacy. She certainly doesn't have to answer to people who may have at most, met the man a handful of times at a convention or exchanged a few emails, when she lived a good portion of her life with him.
