Tomato, believe I not, I do.
Years ago, my brother had a minority investment in a closely held coal company in British Columbia, a rather large investment.
At the time I was working in Tokyo, and the CEO of the company happened to be there to promote the sales of his coal to Nippon Steel. It turned out we had a mutual friend, and in my puppy dog way (at the time, I'm wiser now) I said that I'd like to meet him. His response?
