Just wondering...but where does Brewer say that he "closed down the store"?
I read the affidavit ..the testimony...the interview...and it seems that some IBM pals of his were in the store and he just up and left them hanging [or so it seems]-- So what was up with all that?
Why are you asking me? Ask Weidmann. He claimed the closing. But he has a point, since probably the majority of people in Brewer's shoes wouldn't have had the guts to follow up.
And I can't vouch for the IBM guys.
