On another note:

Tony Gallardo called me to let me know that the additional bk info for the corporation and for Scott R. would follow in the next few weeks. So in the end we will have 3 separate cases where they may be attempting to discharge their debts.
Sometimes business people kid themselves about their prospects of surviving business troubles, but hope is not a business plan.

Businesses naturally succeed, and businesses naturally fail.

I think most entrepreneurs are honest.
