I was only speaking of the people in Lindon/Orem/Provo/Salt Lake. I
dealt with some of the people in Santa Cruz, but only via phone and 
not for very long before I left. It was already clear in 2000 that
SCO were somehow taking over and I already knew I didn't want anything
to do with what the company was doing and becoming.
