I've heard that about quote too, wouldn't surprise me at all. He's not only
"****ed off" vendors, but staff as well. I know of several people that
stopped helping during the 80's for that reason.

Yes. It is way past time to pass the torch on to someone younger than
80 who has the energy to keep it going.

Quote attributed to him by an insider: "I will take it to the grave
with me."

And in the good years he ****ed off vendors who never came back.
