FWIW, I actually met him once (several years ago). It was on a beach at a resort in Negril Jamaica. At the time he was the developer/owner of the Stoneridge Shopping Center in Gahanna. He shared some interesting stories on acquiring the property, etc. He did seem like a pretty decent guy. Anyway, anyone that goes to Hedonism II can't be all bad.
