I did not say what they did worked like a charm. Just saying that when you are dealing with an unreasonable person that puts you in unreasonable situation. Of course they could have done a lot of situations, but not many of us will ever be in that situation or see it many times in our career. So we can discuss all kinds of things they could have done, but it changes when the lights are on you. That is really all I am saying. If the officials did the things differently or did things in a different order, that is not going to change this maniac.

Peace
