So, inet ... you've been around that long?
Why don;t you ask her who it was and what precipitated it? Except that's ancient history and I doubt she'll be much interested in discussing it with you. And it wasn't that incident that got her "so PO'd at the company". Actually, is she POed? Or just amused, like many of us after all this time, as the beat goes on? Same music, just a different drummer.
btw, I don't think bringing the company formerly known as loch down is her "life's work", but of course I could be entirely wrong.
