You make a good point. I think the buyout was a comment from the Lees and he took it an ran with it to get the stk rolling. These guys only hear what they want and run with it. This is what I think happened and he dug himself into a hole and has not been able to get out of it. He let his ego get the best of him. They stretched the Dow thing with the Hanbool having Dow on their letterhead and business cards. Now Allie knows what he is dealing with and wants no part of it. A successful business man like Allie knows he cannot ruin his reputation being associated with a liar and con. Allie I think got conned like alot of us and I bet he is mad. IMO
