that I need to teach you how to think.

Did we have their sales numbers when we made the original demand, or were we estimating? Is it possible we received additional sales info from them either thru discovery or directly from them in the meantime?

Secondly, the $42 million is not the first demand, is it? So why would it be at the upper end. Could it be a more refined amount based on info received as per the paragrah above?

Your next to last paragraph ignores the info above, so no use commenting on it.

As to the coward reference, I pretty much read this board every day, especially now when I am working 7 days a week. So my "appearing" here is coincidental to the need to correct misinformation that someone may be spreading and has nothing to do with the word coward which you and your other bullying buddy like to throw around.
