Durt- I agree 100%.
As for who else to help besides ourselves, I was thinking SAAC, certainly not CS.
Wouldn't it be ironic if Shelby is successful in sacking SAAC, then he dies and his companies fall apart. And, those who know enough to carry on the legend, like Ron, Ned, Rick decline, as it would give them a daily reminder of the guy. So, in the end, the name dies with him, rather than grows post mortum. How ironic.
As for, "Sometimes it is better not to know the people we admire for something they have accomplished." That's probably true for a lot of folks. I have a patient who toured personally with Hillary Clinton for years as military attache' for Bill. Says she washes her hands furiously after coming back off stage, to get the disgusting, slimey people off her hands. I'm sure lots of popularity hounds are like that.
Regarding SAAC stepping in when CS couldn't have cared less, does CS have the law behind him with regard to his suit? If I take something that you've put in your garbage at the street, 30 years later, who owns it? Seems to me SAAC would win in court. No wrist slitting needed.
