All I can say is that has NOT been my experience in my interactions with Dr. Seymour.
He has been extremely contrite, polite, and quite (unexpectedly IMO) responsive - within the limits of what as yet undisclosed corporate information he can reveal of course over the last couple of years - to those questions I have personally posed to him.
Often - there is information he distinctly states he cannot release publically when I have contacted him. I respect that and absolutely understand that stance and need.
Perhaps it is NOT Dr. Seymour who has regularly displayed disdain?
