I left the meeting in a cloud of smoke?  Once again, Andy, you have come up with your own version of what happened.  Yes, I was sitting outside the entire time the board was in their closed door meeting.  I had supper plans with Landis and his driver.  Landis was the first one out the door.  When he walked down the sidewalk, I could tell he was not happy.  He walked straight to my truck and told me to get in and let&#039;s get out of here.  I had no idea what was going on other than knowing Landis was upset.  We drove out of the parking lot with me still not knowing what had happened.  If there was ANY &amp;quot;cloud of smoke&amp;quot; it was because of a high mile truck needing a set of rings.  

Yes, the contract called for notice in writing.  That&#039;s for legal reasons obviously.  The proper thing to do would have been to call me into the meeting and notify me in front of the board. I hardly think that they were in a rush to get out into the parking lot to notify me.  I would almost bet that if I had still been out there, they still wouldn&#039;t have said a word.  

It&#039;s about time that you stop writing your own versions of what has happened.  You have not asked my side about any of this, you just take the word of someone else as gospel or read something else into it.  Maybe you should have asked me on one of my numerous trips past the HPOCA booth this weekend.
