`"�the Asbury Park project is a 10 year long affair [actually 30]. wouldn't it be nice to have something good attached to your name? �from all the press and stories you hear lary talking about. about what we will have, and � will be like. � would he really bullshit that much? if he knew�if in the end it was horrible, he himself and his company would be to blame [they will be]. no one would want anything to do with them [no one will/or should]. sure he wants money, but he doesn't want to be known as the one who screwed up "asbury park". `
Charlie, when really horrible actions are taken, nobody wants to believe that anyone could stoop so low. This refusal to believe is part of how we're wired; we seem to have a mechanism of denial that tells us that because we wouldn't do it, no other sentient human will do it. I think this mechanism is why 8 million Jews went quietly to their death in Hitler's camps; they refused to believe the harm or danger that waits. Larry scored a deal so rich and one sided, that he is unable to cope with staggering sum of money he could make. Would he like something nice attached to his and his company's name? Sure, but he'll be well into his 70's by the time this episode ends (this is his first and last project as Master Developer). Does he have today enough understanding of the business he finds himself in to `know' that his words are no more than bullshit? In the end, when this project turns out as poorly as many of us fear, "no one [will] want anything to do with them" --- In [email protected], charlie leonard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > skip, it may be their first development project, but i > dont think its true that they dont care.. they may > want to have other projects after this one, or maybe > even smaller ones during. considering the asbury park > project is a 10 year long afair. wouldnt it be nice > to have something good attached to your name? they > may not do everything that we want, or for that > matter, follow rules and directions. but i know in > the end, it will look good. im not taknig sides, but > from all the press and storys you hear lary talking > about. about what we will have, and what asbury park > will be like. you have to wonder, would he really > bullshit that much? if he knew in the end it wouldnt > be? if in the end it was horriable, he himself and > his company would be to blame. no one would want > anything to do with them. i dont think lary is > looking for that kind of representation for himself. > sure he wants money, but he doenst want to be known as > the one who scewed up "asbury park". > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
