The point is Ray didn't want it out there. He told Ryan and me that when he sent it to us. Ryan made a mistake by sending it to someone who could share it with others. If something is given to you with the understanding it not get around then you should keep it to yourself. Will Jim care. Nope. Will Ray care... probably not... he's got more important things to worry about. Has Ryan learned a lesson? I hope so.
