I've never met him, and I don't follow these things as closely as some do. So, I wouldn't be able to offer a judgment.
I'm just surprised at how quickly the gentleman has gone from having the mark of Cain (when working with HHSE) to being a key contributor (at Origin).
You seemed excited regarding an Origin IPO (or whatever). If you wanted to invest in a company because they were working with Perez, you could have invested in HHSE.
