his resignation sounds "voluntary", doesn't it <G>

<<In a bizarre twist, USWeb founder Joe Firmage has quit his executive
post even as a San Francisco newspaper was trumpeting his view that
aliens are behind many of today's technological advances.
Firmage, 28, told the newspaper he was resigning to deflect publicity
from the Santa Clara Web consulting firm, which recently merged with
CKS. The story quoted company CEO Robert Shaw as agreeing with the
decision.

"Given the market exposure associated with his outside interests, Joe
suggested that we would all be better served if he didn't have an
official role with the company," Shaw was quoted as saying.>>
