Nile A. Zurri issues 2nd open letter to Peter K. Lobnig & Ocean Vineyard. 987 words for Peter

Peter,

Within your blog reply you have chosen to shift the focus of not paying the staff as agreed. You offer no explanation as to why staff wasn't paid as agreed. Instead you make it known to your colleagues (some who already had prior awareness) that Nile has a conviction record. Then you falsely accuse me of being a cyber stalker, and frame yourself as “the latest victim of cyber extortion”. Oily tactics designed to salvage your eroding reputation. You further continue this nonsense by injecting race into an issue that is completely race neutral by characterizing yourself as the benefactor of a down trodden African American, paaalease.

Regretfully this exposes you as the true racist that you must be. Sleeping with women of color does not acquit you from being a racist. During American slavery just about every plantation had bi-racial children running around in abundance, care to guess who fathered all of those bi-racial children?
If your guess was “non racist slavemasters” then you are on to something. :-) A recommended movie for you since you enjoy movies: Jefferson in Paris. Not the best movie but it proves my point.

Further you state that I bombarded your innocent friends and colleagues with emails and extortion letters etc. Most interesting is that you present incomplete snippets of a letter that you received on my behalf which you present as a random extortion demand for $30,000. Presenting the letter in it's entirety and not in a self serving edited manner would have been even handed. However we both know you will never present the letter in it's entirety since it reveals the truth behind the falsehood that you continue to present. Moreover, evenhandedness and fair dealing is not your style which of course all of your former Ocean Vineyard partners and perhaps even your law enforcement friends are now fully aware of.

The truth as you well know it is:

Ocean Vineyard owes back base compensation pay to several former executive staff members.

Before, during and after the company ceased operations you and your wife agreed to reconcile your obligation to your staff, to date and almost 2 years later the obligations remain unpaid. This proves you are deadbeat employers and unprincipled human beings, and the universe will punish you for your conduct. As your wife is fond of hypocritically saying “God don't like ugly”.

All reasonable people would agree that vigorously pursuing an entrepreneurial endeavor and failing to achieve the original intended result does not make you a villain or a failure. How you handle the team around you who were all dedicated, steadfast, loyal and entrenched beside you before, during, and after the end of business operations is a clear reflection of your true character. This is where Ocean Vineyard dropped the ball and failed miserably. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., wrote, "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."

Within your blog you complain that your friends and colleagues were bombarded with emails, the word bombarded is a mischaracterization of facts. The fact is many good faith attempts at civil communications were made to you directly, which you ignored. Subsequently your lawyer was contacted and immediately you replied and expressed a desire to pay what you owe. After you were provided with banking coordinates to pay, along with a reasonable deadline, you continued to ignore future attempts at proper reconciliation. Previously you even agreed to pay installments to Sam of 500.00 per month for his $21,000 arrears base compensation.
When you chose to become unreachable and to ignore extended patience and reason, people who were close to you or had direct access to you were contacted in an effort to forward a message to you, although perhaps embarrassing, the approach was successful in conveying the message. Besides whats good for the goose is also good for the gander; your law enforcement friend decided to "bombard" my colleagues with emails in an effort to cause reputation harm. In all honesty the people who matter the most were supportive of me despite his efforts, because they already had prior awareness of your arrears compensation.

This open letter is intended as a caution for those who may be inclined to fall victim to your semantic traps of deception.

Though painful to admit, it is now my belief that despite prior repeated assurances and for whatever the reason, Ocean Vineyard never intended to pay what it owed me. Your wife constantly expressed to me that you were a “user” I ignored her and considered her overly emotional as you know, yet she was correct in the end. Although encouraging you to do the right thing by simply paying what you owe has failed, I have succeeded in making available the true nature of your character to anyone who decides to enter “Peter K. Lobnig” into a search engine and pressing the search button.

Given the proper circumstances I'm confident that all information adverse to your reputation can be removed from search engines, however the longer it remains within the search engine indexes, the more difficult it will be to remove.

Peter K. Lobnig's Position

Posted by peter lobnig at 1:09 PM 0 comments
Peter K. Lobnig: latest victim of Cyber Extortionist and Internet Stalker Johnnie-Cornelius GREENE a.k.a. Nile ZURRI, David Pullman, Tom Burell
On this blog I, Peter K. Lobnig, would like to tell my recent experience as to becoming a victim to 'cyber extortion' and subsequent 'internet stalking'. Cyber extortion, more commonly used and a more wide-spread form is the threat of hacking into and damaging a company's protected computer system in order to extort monies or other things of value.
In my specific case cyber extortion applies to a lesser known form of extorting monies mostly from businesses and business owners or other individuals who are in the public eye. Cyber extortion in this case consists of the threat to publish potentially devastating and extremely damaging information - usually entirely fictitious allegations and accusations - about the intended target on the internet.
I have now experienced a vicious attack on the internet. The maliciousness of the perpetrator becomes apparent when he involved some of my family members, friends, acquaintances and business associates of mine in his smear campaign. Like myself he labelled entirely innocent individuals and companies as criminals who seemed all to be part of a major global conspiracy.
The individual responsible for these extortion attempts and the ongoing stalking via the internet
is Johnnie Cornelius GREENE a.k.a Nile ZURRI, Nile ZURI, Nile A. ZURRI, Ingrid GONZALEZ, Tom BURELL, David PULLMAN etc. Nile Zurri is a disgruntled ex-employee of one of my companies, a convicted felon, a known internet scamer, a proven I.D. thief and bank fraudster. (There is additional information on his criminal activities which I might disclose in the future...). Johnnie C Greene a.k.a. Nile Zurri is being sought by countless victimized individuals and by authorities in several countries.
I hope that this my story, which is a real-life experience, will help not only to alert the public of this dangerous individual but will hopefully contribute to put a stop at his criminal activities. This article should also be a lesson to everyone - not only in terms of the 'wild west' internet environment but also in terms of carefully selecting your friends, your associates or your employees... because what happened to me can happen to anyone....!
In early 2004 I developed and executed a new business concept customized for the cruise industry. At that time I was casually introduced to Nile Zurri who obviously made a very good impression in terms of presentation, personality and knowledge/expertise as I subsequently
hired him. I soon found out that he was a convicted felon which he downplayed by explaining that he sold a gadget which manipulates traffic lights over the internet. He claimed that he was not aware that this gadget was only permitted to use by ambulance drivers and law enforcement officers. I accepted his explanation without any further thought or action. Only after I severed my ties with Nile Zurri did I find out from my sources at a law enforcement agency that Nile Zurri did not really sell an actual traffic light changing device but a hand-drawn instruction paper for assembling some kind of a 'disco light'... Yes, he did time in prison for this intentional fraud... "A real piece of work... professional scamer... he could make it really big with his talents if he would stay on the right side of the law.. these are some of the comments from friends in law enforcement who have been dealing with him in the past.

As I always try, in some ways, to help the down-trodden I was naively convinced that I needed to do a good deed by offering an opportunity for Nile Zurri, who I thought was 'let down by the system'. His African-American heritage only re-enforce my believe that he needed a helping hand and another fair shake and chance for his professional and social aspirations. That he was a devout follower and admirer of Nation of Islam (which he never mentioned) did obviously not influence my judgement of him at any time. Notwithstanding the fact that I personally do not agree with the stated and well publicized philosophy of this organization and its leaders - but, this is America, founded on the basis of religious freedom and I will always respect that and anyone's choice....
By 2006 I decided to discontinue that specific operation on amicable terms and mutual understanding with my cruise line client. Nile Zurri, who was supposed to be instrumental in the success of this business saw him self out of a job. By analyzing and dissecting the business concept we realized that this business has been sabotaged in different stages and segments of it rather short life span. To this day we have not figured out if Nile Zurri was doing the harm intentionally or just by being plain incompetent - we suspected at that time that it might have been a combination of both. In hindsight I remember all the warnings I received from literally anyone who crossed Nile Zurri's path when he was involved in my company: questions about his competency, traces of suppressed reversed racism, lack of trustworthiness and much more...
Mia Culpa - I guess I was overly eager in my attempt to create a success story for a 'down-and-out' individual which in my opinion had great talent and potential.
I did allow Nile Zurri to continue using an office space as he seemed to be working on a new project of his. He than tried to get me interested in assisting him to set up an internet-based recruiting firm targeting cruise ship crew members. He was hoping for me not only to assist him financially in this venture but thought that my impeccable background and reputation in this industry would give his business a better chance to compete. In addition he expected me to hire some of his potential recruitees for work onboard M/V Island Adventure/SeaEscape etc. From the onset I told him in no uncertain terms that this kind of venture will always be seen as a 'scam' - because that's what it is. Everyone familiar with the cruise industry knows that this kind of recruiting (money for jobs) hardly ever yields any employment as it only acts as a vehicle to enrich some unconscious 'scumbag' who preys on the vulnerability of unemployed workers in developing countries. Any aspiring crew member will only be hired through legitimate and certified crewing agencies or through cruise companies' HR departments directly. Although he relentlessly tried to convince me that his 'business model' is absolutely legitimate I refused to assist him in any way. When he approached me of officially renting him office space in order to register his new company I knew I had to part ways with him. As anyone who knows me, I have been directly and indirectly affiliated within the cruise industry for many years and I pride myself to have legitimately hired many crew members. I therefore could not afford to have any association with Nile Zurri and his new 'business model'...
I soon thereafter found out that he did in fact start this business: http://www.ecruiseshipjobs.com/ (finally this site has just recently been removed from the web and is presently 'under construction').Unfortunately he somehow managed to secretly access to my existing crew/personnel files and subsequently integrated some of the extracted information into his web site. He used some of my crew member's names, photos and employment positions as 'testimonials' that they were successfully hired by his recruiting firm. I also found out at the time of parting with him that he had gained unauthorized access to my personal bank account by initiating some payment transfers to pay for some of his personal expenses such as phone and light bills etc. Fortunately I immediately noticed these transactions before any further damage could occur. I discussed these I.D. theft, bank fraud and breach of privacy with my bank manager and a high ranking friend at Miami Police Department. Both urged me to press charges but the prospect to have him arrested the very next morning was not very palatable to me and I decided not to pursue him any further at that time. I, at that time also informed my friend about his website he is working on which in my opinion is just a money making scam. Although the friend from the MPD offered to assemble a task force to investigate Nile Zurri's venture I did not pursue it any further either at that time as it would have required me to get together with the different cruise line's HR offices to gather specific information. Honestly, I did not want to bother with Nile Zurri any longer and hoped that his venture would never really get of the ground anyway... At the same time he has vanished from his residence and could not be found anywhere in Miami. Please note: it was at that time during my conversation with the MPD officer that he made me aware of the real circumstances surrounding Nile Zurri's previous arrest and prison term.
Once Nile Zurri disappeared he did not contact me again until late summer of 2007. He left me overly friendly messages on my voice mail and somehow got my e-mail address. He than sent me lengthy messages which included his notion that he is doing very well now in his new host country Colombia. He mentioned about his new business opportunity which according to him was absolutely legitimate and was making him good money already. In order to further realize the full earnings potential of his new venture he just need some help and assistance and he thought that I might be interested. He wanted to meet with me wherever I would be in order to verbally explain the business. As I did not show any interest he finally explained this 'opportunity' through lengthy emails... again, it was about the same recruiting scheme.... He explained that he need someone like me as the figure head and fronting partner because of his criminal back ground. He also need an investing partner in order to take advantage of some rather large agreements he apparently had with two crewing agencies. And last but not least he wanted me to hire 9 Jamaicans from the get-go so he could prove the credibility of his venture. Needless to say that he overwhelmed me with his assurances that this is legitimate recruiting business. At that same time I was contacted by an investigator who tracked Nile Zurri's email movements and noticed that among others he had contacted me. He was hired by 2 crewing agencies in Jamaica and by families of victimized crew members to help finding Nile Zurri in order to stop him from further victimizing potential crew members and to recover large sums of monies which the two agencies apparently already fronted to Nile Zurri. He asked for my cooperation and assistance to help him in his quest and I gave him any information about Nile Zurri and his criminal back ground as well as my own negative experience with him. He also asked me to keep in contact with Nile Zurri as this way he would able to track his movements. He already found out that Nile Zurri had just left Colombia over the Venezuelan border. I than informed him that Nile Zurri contacted me from Madrid where he was hoping to catch up with me on my way to or from Africa. I then told him that I might plan to be in London soon, that's when Nile Zurri suddenly contacted me from. Unfortunately he used public phones and internet cafes and pleaded with me to help him as he has run out of funds and nobody would exchange Venezuelan Bolivars... He also needed urgently my help in order to salvage his business relationship with the crewing agencies. At one point the owners of the crewing agencies must have told him that I have strongly advised them to discontinue any relationship with Nile and gave them all the reasons for doing so. From that point on I only received some understandably angry messages to which so far I have refused to respond....
Early February of 2008 I have been shown an e-mail by my friend and attorney which was also sent to several of my friends, associates and business affiliates (even the concierge of my residence building received one....). The sender was a David Pullman from a 'cashforstories' website claiming that on behalf of Nile Zurri he has prepared a three-part series of newspaper articles of which part one to be published that upcoming Sunday in 'The Gazette' (non-existing paper) unless I make a payment of $ 30,000 to Nile Zurri. These newspaper articles included the wildest accusations and and most unbelievable criminal allegations of me and also of any of my members of my family and any of my friends and business associates. Through his past employment with me he was introduced to some of my family and friends as well as business associate. Suddenly all of these individuals and companies became now the totally innocent targets of his attempt to extort Peter K. Lobnig. Following are some samples of his global conspiracy theory involving me and my social and professional circle of individuals: major drug dealing operation in Colombia, Russian Mafia, indictments in several African countries (arms dealing?), millions of dollars missing from a major cruise line, even ex-President Bill Clinton has been thrown into the mix..., collection of Ferraris and Lamborghinis, Italian luxury yachts, close connections with secret services such as the CIA and other 'friends in the highest places'.... He states that 'Peter Lobnig gets away with all these activities because of his friends in high places and the CIA as well as his closeness with other law enforcement agencies...' In addition Nile Zurri placed a web link to two websites which would give his 'story' a more official appearance: http://www.federalfraud.com/ and some whistleblower.org site. A call to the proprietors of federalfraud website revealed a law firm in New York and its owners are not aware of a David Pullman, Tom Burell or Nile Zurri. As a matter of fact they are not aware of anybody or anything in this 'story'...
Since the onset of Nile Zurri's smear campaign it was apparent that neither David Pullman nor Tom Burell existed - they are just another a.k.a. and/or alter ego of Nile Zurri. At one time Tom Burell appears as a retired federal investigator and on a different occasion he introduces himself as a 'reporter'. By email he heads WWS Investigations...
I do admit that I am guilty of ignoring Nile Zurri's extortion attempt now for too long over these 5 past weeks. Although sometime in February, before his internet stalking started, I did send him an e-mail to meet me in Miami so we could discuss any issues of his. In return I was sent by 'David Pullman' on behalf of Nile Zurri wiring instructions to an account in Georgia: Justin Greene, at the heritage Bank on 300 South Main St., in Hinesville, Georgia. This transaction had an ultimatum attached: 10:00 am that very next morning of February 19, 2008. His ultimatum also was attached to an e-mail note and read as follows: 'February 14 has officially become my unlucky day...' . The name Justin Greene and the bank account are being investigated... (Justin Greene appears to be either his father or his younger brother).
Of course there was no legitimate newspaper to print this kind of entirely made up trash. Correction: one of my friends, Michael Mouyal, did in fact pay $ 1 million in fines in Canada when he owned one of the world's largest international call center operations. As a matter of fact Nile Zurri previously worked for him temporarily and sold unauthorized a $ 50,000 piece of communication equipment for his own gain...
As Nile Zurri's initial extortion attempt via the fake newspaper articles did not yield any response from anyone he than brought 'Tom Burell' of WWS Investigations into the picture (keep in mind, Tom Burell is Nile Zurri...). One of his many threatening e-mails which he sent to me but also to many of my family members and friends and business affiliates reads as follows: 'This time the window of opportunity is closing very fast and Peter Lobnig's well documented criminal conduct will lead to public humiliation within the commercial business arena'. In one of his emails he also announced that my name has been put into Google...
One of his recent emails contained the following warning: 'the world is flat, there is no place to hide'.
Finally, at this time, as he starts to bombard individuals and business entities such as Poseidon International and SeaEscape Cruises among others with his outrageous statements in order to advance his extortion racket I have forwarded all information to the pertaining law enforcement agencies. I will keep it posted...
PLEASE NOTE: A REWARD OF $ 30,000 WILL BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY
this reward will be offered for information about the where-abouts of Johnnie-Cornelius Greene a.k.a. Nile Zurri, Nile A. Zurri, Nile Zuri, David Pullman, Tom Burell, Ingrid Gonzalez. An e-mail address for this purpose and for further information will be published shortly.
As of March 11, 2008 Johnnie C Greene a.k.a. Nile Zurri has not legally re-entered the United States. By all accounts his actions are not only criminal but those are an obvious indication of a mentally seriously challenged individual.

Nile A. Zurri issues Open Reply to Peter K. Lobnig in response to the Plobnig.blogspot.com posting. For those interested in the facts.

Peter,

Your Plobnig.blogspot.com blog was brought to my attention recently. Your account above is partial and therefore misleading. For now I will focus on the core issue which you, your wife and Ocean Vineyard attempt to squirm out of by forcing attention to external and irrelevant elements.

For those thinking readers interested in the facts. You are personally invited to read the following account which is more illuminating than the above self serving account authored by Peter Lobnig. It’s long, but believe me, if you’re reading this site, it almost certainly reveals something you’ll find very interesting.

Celebrity Cruises is aware of this and sent an email reply which I will have posted in full unedited on a new site. Celebrity Cruises at least had the class and professionalism to write and phone me directly with their feedback on the matter.

You are aware of this

Your wife Connie is aware of this.

Sam is aware of this.

Patrizio Clerici is aware of this (it was discussed at his office during a time when Patrizio no longer respected nor understand your method of management.

When I mentioned to him the economic sacrifice demonstrated by Sam and myself prior to Patrizio's participation and investment within the company, he looked directly into my eyes and said “Wow, I didn't know that, Peter never told me that Nile.” This was just one of the many of your shady back handed surprises awaiting your new Partner.

My select family and friends are aware of this.

Gordon Watt your lawyer is aware of this.

Maan Barazi your Poseidon manager is aware of this.

Simon Worgotter your best friend and my former neighbor is aware of this.

American Express is aware of this.

The United States probation office is aware of this (recall the letter that you signed to my PO indicating that you were in arrears with my salary as a result of ... “Corporate Restructuring.” As you know my probation officer was giving me grief over submitting incomplete monthly financial statements, and your failure to pay me as agreed jeopardized my scheduled termination of Federal Probation! In short, if you didn't pay my base salary as agreed by the terms and conditions stipulated within my Independent Contractor Partnership Contract, and I couldn't show income from working at Ocean Vineyard, I was not going to be released from federal probation! Like my PO remarked to me during the time, “no one works for free.” Is the US Federal Government engaged in “extortion” by providing me a deadline for their lawfully owed arrears payment action? By your wrongheaded and cowardly rationale they are extortionist. I'm sure the US Government considers it “leverage.” And since you've had well over a year to take any responsible action, any deadline is utterly reasonable.

In fact, as a result of these multiple incomplete required monthly reports which I entered into the income column as “pending payment as agreed” my probation officer and her supervisor paid an unannounced visit to my office just to ensure that I was actually working, something they had never before done. You actually walked into my office during their visit before you excused yourself because you entered my office before realizing that there were two people I was in conference with. By the time my meeting with the two ended you were gone. I later told Connie those were people that I owe money to. The extortionist!

Moreover, your wife asked me not to bother you about this because of your health condition. She agreed to take care of it immediately. I was actually in Connie's office while she phoned you on your mobile phone and explained the situation to you, you agreed to pay and 2 days afterwards you gave me a check in full for my then arrears payroll amount of 15,000.00.

The central issue as you well know is your arrears payment to me. The following comment was asked by the person who brought your blog to my attention, which any thinking person would ask after reading your blog. “if what Peter said is completely true then why would you ask for only $30,000.00?, why not 500,000, 1,000,000? Did you just flip a coin and decide to be the $30,000 international extortionist ha ha ha?”

Peter, you well know the answer to that question, it is because I'm not an extortionist as you slanderously purport within your blog, Ocean Vineyard owes me in arrears base compensation exactly $30,000. You well know this yet you steadily conceal this fact from your friends, family, colleagues, and law enforcement.

And as I've indicated to you in emails that you've ignored in the past since the end of 2006, all I want from you is what you owe me, nothing more and nothing less, no extortion just complete and proper reconciliation of my arrears compensation. All other losses I've written off and accept as a part of doing business with you. Arrears and unpaid base compensation on the other hand is foundationally unacceptble as it equates to free labor and work without compensation and a form of slavery and a clear case of fraud! Perhaps I'll start a blog entitled “This could happen to you if you work with anyone associated with Peter K. Lobnig”

When Michael attempted to “steal my time” after all of my civil efforts with him were exhausted, I managed the sale of something of value to him in order to recover what I worked for and was entitled too, although the dollar amount indicated within your blog is False, the principle is accurate and I hold to it today.

When I explained the situation to Michael, naturally he did not like it, but he understood as a human being, and we went out and had coffee afterwards. I told Michael that I don't like it when people attempt to “steal my time” which has more value to me than any object, again he understood. Additionally I had pre existing awareness that Michael stiffed his entire sales staff in Barbados and I was prepared for any potential deceit by him towards me. With you, I didn't consider such preparation necessary, therefore preparation didn't exist. You are more oily that Michael.

The clear difference between you and Michael that I have learned the hard way is that at least Michael is of a character that recognizes and respects truth even when it does not serve his interest. A real piece of work you are Peter. I recall how much trash you and Connie talked about Michael when I told you about how I sold Michael's equipment and the surrounding circumstances. You said yourself “You had to do what you had to do, I would have probably done the same thing because you know he had the money to pay you.”

Connie echoed your sentiments. You and Connie were the ones who also told me how Michael was buying lavish Christmas and Jewish holiday gifts for people (the both of you included) a $7,000 dress for Esperanza, but yet couldn't pay me and another staff member what he owed us, you actually rubbed it in quite nicely, and boasted how you and Connie are not that caliber of people, and would never do such a thing. Mental note to self: 'this Peter is a man of high moral integrity.' “Peter makes sure all of his staff on Sea Escape are taken care of especially during the holidays” Connie's remark. Peter, referring to Michael, you even leaned your head down, raised your eyes and said, “you know the reputation of Jewish people.” Could that be a trace of that Germanic Hitlerian thought Peter, inherited or nurtured from your native German / Austrian language? Oh I forgot, I'm the one suffering from 'suppressed reverse racism'.

Peter you can tell your friends whatever you want to make yourself look good as is your habit, but you and some around you know the truth, post that on your blog for the world to see.

Next: No prior knowledge of my being on Probation & Michael Mouyal:

It is a perfect lie that you didn't know about my conviction situation until after you invited me to work with you. Michael told you all about it long before you invited me to work with you. Remember thats why he informed you that I could not accompany you, him, and Robert on the ship during your first shipboard meeting on MV Summit. Michael knew that I needed 48 hours clearance from my PO before travel or embarking on a ship, and the notice given for the meeting was too short. We've discussed this before, in fact you were the one who told me that Michael used my situation as an excuse to postpone the meeting! Peter you are far too young to suffer from Alzheimers, whats up?

Next: The incompetent CEO or Nile's sabotage?

There have been many people fired by you and Connie during the course of Ocean Vineyard operations: Franco, Joseph, Maria, Karen, Richard, Delroy, Carlos, Jess etc. yet by the content on your blog you expect your friends, colleagues and family to believe that I, whom you suspected of sabotage or incompetence,... out of the kindness of your heart, was kept onboard, because you wanted to give a down trodden African American an opportunity. You've fired colleagues and friends that you've known for over 10 years, yet spared me! I think you are really losing it Peter. Paaaaleeease! Weird!

Your blog readers are to believe that you who were responsible for not only your own personal investment, but the investment of others including Connie's mother, Patrizio, Joey, your reputation with Celebrity and your peers, and every employee on the ships; you refrained from firing me a suspected saboteur and incompetent out of some sense of righting a potential malfunction within the justice system! Really weird and cowardly rationale Peter. Sadly your ego still will not permit you to accept the responsibility that you and your incompetent CEO/ Presidential decisions ruined Ocean Vineyard. You were the captain of the Ocean Vineyard ship, yet you persist in blaming everyone else for it's failure. Weird.

You read the Financial Times, the Wall Street Journal on a daily basis and everyday CEO's, President's, VP's, staff, etc are removed and replaced when it is recognized that their decisions and or conduct are a liability in any way to corporate objectives. Yet those same standards that you value and read about everyday do not apply to me., ...yeah right! Weird.

But again I noticed your management flaws the hard way. Franco Tognini was to blame for the sales flaws, you blamed him. I repeatedly warned you personally and in writing from the beginning about Franco's flawed sales methods, you chose to ignore my warnings. Then Jaco's flawed training was to blame. I also warned you repeatedly about Jaco as well, who was well intentioned and eager but completely unqualified in this area of skill, which was in fact the artery of the company. Then Karen was blamed. Then Carlos was blamed, then Patrizio Clerici was blamed after you allowed your wife to convince you that he was trying to take over the company. Then you blamed Connie for the sales flaws until Celebrity Cruises banned her from their entire fleet, then everything was Connie's fault. Now it's all my fault, the master saboteur/incompetent! Twisted cowardly and delusional thinking Peter.

Instead of making up all of the signs and warnings that you claim to have received about me, and my “suppressed reverse racism” (love that one) you should have paid attention to all the signs and warnings that everyone including myself was giving you everywhere and almost on a daily basis about your own wife, the Ocean Vineyard Fleet Manager.

Do you know how many phone calls I received around the clock from employees worldwide threating to quit and leave the ship because of Connie, you do because I told you. I spent more time in damage control mode than any reasonable person would endure. On that basis, I do admit to having a mental disorder.

Despite my minor snag with Maria who has admired and worked loyally for you for many years, Maria never walked out and quit under my management style, but she walked out on Connie's management style immediately! Within 2 days of Connie involving herself in the business, Maria quit and then sent an email to everyone fleet wide referring to Connie as a “bitch” yet still maintaining her loyalty to you and referring to you as “the great Mr. Peter”.

Connie's ex supervisor Steve, a person Ocean Vineyard valued enough as a paid professional sales consultant, told you that while he was her supervisor at a nationally recognized corporation, Connie was not promoted from sales to management under his leadership because.... “Connie does not know how to deal professionally with PEOPLE!” And if operating within the environment of a cruise ship is not a complete PEOPLE business then what is? But as you well know, Connie considers her constant denial from sales to management within that corporation a consequence of racism and sexism! Yet you Mr. President and CEO, despite what your experienced paid sales consultant warned you of, you enabled her wreck less authority on all of the ships and within the administrative office. If anyone was qualified to render an opinion on the work posture your wife, wouldn't it be reasonable to pay attention to what her former supervisor had to say!

Peter do you think it's easy for a man to tell another man that his own wife is a management liability?

It's wasn't easy Peter, Steve and I discussed this. But Steve expressed to you his professional opinion which is an independent issue from Connie being your wife, and you ignored it. Many customers complained about Connie's telephone etiquette, you yourself on several explosive occasions within the office, attempted to offer her operational constructive criticism on customer service telephone etiquette, only to get your head orally chopped off within verbal shouting matches and aggressive emotional temper tantrums.

Many warnings were given to you about Connie, every employee on land and at sea complained about her to me and I caught the pressure, I received the complaints, calls and the emails, around the clock, from every time zone. You ignored every warning from your partners, shareholders, investors and advisors, you played ostrich by burying your head in the sand!

The only time you didn't ignore the warnings regarding Connie was when you couldn't ignore the warnings! This is when Celebrity Cruises memorialized in writing that Connie's conduct did not embody the standards that Celebrity Cruises customers had come to rely upon, and banned Connie, “Ocean Vineyard's fleet manager” from the entire fleet! How troublesome and embarrassing. But of course we kept this under our hats, no one was supposed to know the “truth” we were to “mislead” regarding why Connie came off of the ships. In fact everyone was told that it was....drum roll please.....VOLUNTARY! Not your friends, not your shareholder investors, not your partners, not your staff, not your colleagues, not your family. Wouldn't be good for your .... reputation! When I read the email from Celebrity Cruises's Brooke Patterson, honestly it was of no surprise, especially since I knew that Dietmar Wertanzl was on his way out at Celebrity and had no more insider influence which you relied so dearly upon.

Those were the signs that you should have been paying attention to Peter. Therefore your false and misleading innuendo that I was somehow incompetent or a saboteur demonstrates more of your continued ostrich and truth deficient mindset. Sadly, you still need a scapegoat, saboteur and incompetent to blame for your business failure, the evidence suggest that you should look a bit closer to home, perhaps you are sleeping with the enemy.

Moreover, this specific episode was fatal for the company because by the time Brooke Patterson from Celebrity banned Connie from the entire fleet you could no longer interfere because your longtime friend and internal fix it man, Dietmar Wertanzl, former VP of Fleet Operations Celebrity Cruises, found himself out of a job with Celebrity Cruises.

Next: More of my incompetence

The only legally compliant shipping solution that I identified and skillfully and aggressively pursued in California; question. Who was it EXACTLY that the President of that shipping company did not feel comfortable working with after he arrived in Miami and spent the day inspecting our operations? The president of the company told you and I both to our faces specifically who he didn't feel comfortable working with!

He was successful, and loved the Ocean Vineyard business model, yet he didn't need the business if the chemistry wasn't correct. As you well know Peter, it was not me that the president of that shipping company had the problem with. If the problem was with me after I returned from California to Miami during our initial contact meeting, the partnership would have never been considered. And you have the twisted mindset to attempt to shift blame of corporate failure to me! Shameful, but more weird than shameful.

Warnings & Signs on the wall.

“Nile why is Connie around here like that, she's out of control and doesn't belong in a management position. She's an operator not management Nile” Michael - This was even before Connie threw Michael out of the offices while you were in the hospital because she screamed that Michael was adding stress to an already ill man!

“I don't understand why she is here Nile to be honest, she doesn't belong, my deal was with Peter not Connie. This is business not a mom and pop operation” Patrizio Clerici

“Nile I can't work with her she's so obnoxious” Karen

“She's my boss and I can't work for a boss like Connie sorry Nile but I have to resign” P. Jessup

“She's very rough and I know she's Peter's wife but I can't work for her” Gayle

“You gotta get me out of here and away from Connie Nile or I'm walking” Stephanie

“I can't do this anymore if Connie has to be around” Scott

“Nile, nice to finally speak with you ..... I think it's best if Connie is not here on the ship” Sarah, Celebrity Cruises

“I can't believe he hung up on me...Peter” shared with me by a staff member during one of the times that I hung up on Connie after she crossed the line with me.

Next: Connie's secret drug addiction & The end of Ocean Vineyard

“Who do you think you are talking to Connie, how dare you threaten me like that!” Nile, after I discovered Connie's secret drug addiction by complete accident in her car on my way to a Juan Luis Guerra concert at Miami Arena that she invited me to. The night was intended to diminish our stress. Instead Connie threatened me with all sorts of ugliness if I told anyone, especially you Peter what I discovered. After her threatening remarks, I exited her car at a traffic light and decided to walk away, the very last thing I needed in my life was a narcotics episode. She chased me down in her car, yelling and stalking and screaming for me to get back into the car, which I ignored. When her threats failed, finally she apologized intensely, and opened up to me in a very unusual way. Consequently this explained to me a lot about her erratic and moody behavior. This is why Connie and I severed company that night. I ended up meeting up with a friend and her father that night at the concert, and then decided to spend the remainder of the evening with more pleasant company instead of Connie after her fangs emerged earlier within the evening.

Prior to this open letter I was honor bound not to discuss this and many other situations with you, however seeing that you and your wife have skillfully dishonored our agreement, and continue to seek to avoid your obligation by the threat and power of law enforcement manipulation, regretfully I find this specific revelation appropriate.

Peter, this reply summary is not intended to shift complete blame to Connie. There were several moving parts which caused the end of Ocean Vineyard, I only take offense in a deep and personal way to your Blog innuendo of my intentional 'sabotage.' I can even honestly admit that your statement of my incompetence could be accurate in certain elements of my ever expanding and uncompensated work load, but .... sabotage! This is where you cross the line, I think maybe the entire experience has you mentally disturbed at this point.

I put my all into Ocean Vineyard, anyone who knows me knew this, ultimately it cost me something that I value above all things, and it's not dead presidents. Never before had so much of my genuine efforts gone into one project, nor had I ever had such a business opportunity to build and prosper from. Despite the negatives, it was a huge business education for me which I endured and learned from.

Peter, I am deeply saddened by how our relationship has degenerated to such a frosty level, it is so unnecessary and should be beneath us both. Yet my conscience is clear because I did not start this war of words, nor did I scam you, and despite your oily manipulations to your colleagues, friends, family, and law enforcement, the truth is on my side.

For those wishing to read your blog without this and other background, introductions to the facts are provided in this reply.

Next: Incompetence in a President and CEO?

You imply me as incompetent within your blog. The short reply to your remark would be.. A CEO & President who refuses to eliminate an incompetent subordinate team member is grossly unfit to be a CEO & President, and is a worse offender than the incompetent team member.


But the reality is that you know that your incompetent claim is false. As you know your friend Michael Mouyal, who after having intense intellectual contact with both of you, I now consider far more business savvy than you. Michael went out of his way to legally bar me from working with you. As a tool he used one of Miami's most prestigious name plate law firms. Why do you think someone as aggressive and successful in business would even attempt such a legal maneuver? Of course you know. It is because Michael recognized after he and I shared ideas, that if you had complete access to my skill set, it was likely that you could succeed without him and without having to pay him 50% of the company, which is what he wanted for his business model concept from you. He valued what was between my ears enough to attempt legal action to prevent my participation with you.

What Michael didn't foresee is that you were wrongheaded, arrogant and stubborn enough to ignore every piece of valuable marketing and sales advice that I provided to you. You only started paying attention to me when your approaches failed to work and when it was too late, and when there was no funding to implement my concepts.

By the time you finally yielded to one of my concepts (wine wheel of fortune which measurably increased shipboard morale and sales) Connie had gotten sacked by Celebrity, Dietmar Wertanzl was on his way out, and the company was out of funding options to survive.

Sitting in one of the law firms conference rooms, I remember what Michael's then lawyer Sam Burstyn said to Michael after Michael explained the full details about why he insisted upon a legal solution to bar me from working with you and Ocean Vineyard. Sam Burstyn professionally weighed my position against Michael's position who was even his friend and neighbor. Burstyn looked at Michael with a sense of bewilderment then looked at me, then glanced at his assistant and then said “Ok so why don't you simply pay Nile what you owe him, make things right with Nile, then maybe Nile will hold out on Peter until you and Peter settle things amongst yourselves. Obviously you respect Nile's talent or he wouldn't be your right hand and you wouldn't be here. Michael, under these conditions you can't legally bar Nile from working or partnering with Peter.” Those are the facts.

The legal advice provided to Michael that day was expensive and experienced. Based on your current actions Peter, I wonder what kind of legal advice you are receiving, perhaps you are ignoring valuable legal advice just like Michael ignored it. Ignoring that experienced legal advice was a bad and stubborn decision for Michael, since continued refusal to pay me what I was entitled to cost Michael a lot more than I was originally entitled to in the first place. If you are wise you will pay attention and learn from Michael's mistake and avoid the mistake yourself. Clearly I've misjudged your character, yet there is still time for you to do the right thing.

But despite the reality that Sam Burstyn didn't tell Michael what Michael wanted to hear; when Michael and I left the law firm and walked to the garage to our separate vehicles, Michael turned and looked at me, thanked me for taking the time to indulge his maneuver, and then wished me well on my relationship with you. He was obviously deflated at the outcome, he could have been an ass, held a grudge, or displayed mean spiritedness, hell he could have tried to throw up the less fine moments of my past to deflect focus and attempt to upset me, like you attempt to do within your blog. Instead he exhibited the complete opposite emotions, he was a real class act about his defeat within that situation.

Next: eCruiseShipJobs.com...Scam. Fact or Fiction

To suggest that my recruiting website was a scam is false, fictitious and misleading Peter. The fact is, after having failed to secure the $30,000 that Ocean Vineyard rightfully owed me, just like I expressed to you months ago via email, I decided to build an online business on my own, based on the principles of recruitment that I learned while working with you, but with an affiliate driven and publishing component which is non existent within the marketplace. It is a lucrative (for me) market gap that I explained to you in detail last year. During the appropriate time the intent was to barter that outstanding $30,000 obligation with your ability to jump start my business at no cost to you by hiring 9 or so preselected Jamaicans for entry level positions on a ship. I even indicated that you could have financial participation with zero cash investment. I did in fact expect a quid pro quo, phrased another way, I did this for you now you can do this for me, it's as simple as that, and you know it. I expected the principle of reciprocity to stimulate my new e-business.

I calculated that you would either accept or decline. If you accepted, that would be great, if you declined for whatever reason and paid me what you owe me, then I would be successful either way, since I already had a preexisting hr relationship that I could properly activate as long as I had the start up cash. I had other hr relationships lined up which were contingent on your action which I needed and expected.

Yes Peter, this was my expectation, ultimately my miscalculation, since you denied me the opportunity by refusing to assist and fatally dragging out the process, and also refusing to pay me what you owe me. A true piece of work you are! And I have several emails and faxed documentation between associates which articulate this in detail prior to any so called investigation which was stimulated by only 2 customer complaints or your oily law enforcement manipulations.

Before I left Miami not only did you offer me and Sam free office space, but you told me that if you could be of any help to simply call you. Simon, your best friend, even phoned me, congratulated me on the website that you had to show him, since I hadn't even mentioned it to him at the time, Simon expressed interest in participation and wanted to know why I hadn't come to him for help on a project like e recruiting since he had existing and well established cruise ship hr relationships through Rolling Pin Cruise magazine which he owns.

I told Simon it wasn't the right time and that the concept was still under development but differed materially from his Rolling Pin Cruise business model. You even complimented me on the website when I showed it to you and NEVER did you complain about the use of content which was obviously anchored in a mix of Poseidon and Ocean Vineyard employees. My web designer can attest that the content was completely unchanged in the areas of significance from that time period.

My reply to you last year via email when you sent me this email “Sun, 30 Sept 2007 17:46:50 +0000

You have been using me and my company, as evidenced by the unauthorized

display of my present and former crew members on your website (you

gained unauthorized access to them through our files in our office...).”

..is the same reply I stand by today on the same matter. You had PLENTY of time to complain or ask me to remove ANY content that you found objectionable on the website. The fact that you didn't raise any objection, Simon your best friend complimented me on the site, and even your wife talked to me about the site and the business. These facts indicated to me one of two things.

Either A) What I've done is acceptable under the circumstances, being as you said to me when we discussed aspects of the concept during our lunch at the Latin Cafe; “You have to make a living” or

Either B) You knew full well that if you raised ANY objection I would insist that you pay me what you owe me so I could move on with my own independent separate project! Since as you know and I've told you previously, no business can begin without funding. Deny me what you owe me and on some level I'm very uncomfortably yet realistically dependent upon you. I even expressed this directly to you in 2006.

The fact is you had zero complaint about me using any content for at least a year, since it was in October 2006 that we actually formally sat down and discussed my website. I have a letter signed by you on Poseidon International's letter head authorizing free office space within Poseidon's office for... “eCruiseShipJobs.com Inc. Department of Occupational License / City of Miami.” Perhaps you should post a copy of this letter on your blog, or share this with your Law Enforcement “friends,” colleagues, and family. You would want your blog readers to believe that you never examined the website of someone who you previously suspected of sabotage within your own business, shared office space with, and someone you knew had a conviction record? By your misleading self serving blog statements, in addition to scamming me out of 6 months worth of contractual base salary, you dishonor the trust of your friends, family, law enforcement, and colleagues by only presenting a pitiful self serving perspective.

Moreover your Sep 30 2007 email also exposes you as a hypocrite of the worse sort, since you have the audacity to pitifully indicate that I was using YOU and your company, after you had not even lifted a finger to reconcile your outstanding obligation to me. This failure to honor your financial responsibility was far beyond the several weeks that you originally told me you needed to map out a solution to my arrears base salary. Hell, and all I did was use COPY to enhance marketing. I can only imagine what your reaction would have been had I USED your labor or work product around the clock 7 days per week for over 6 months uncompensated! You would have gone postal on me, a true piece of work you are!

Peter, also when I explained the concept to you at lunch at the Latin Cafe and even showed you a list of orders at the time. I told you that there are always more people willing to pay for the opportunity to work on a ship than there are actually people qualified to work on the ship. This holds true for many jobs not just cruise ship jobs. This I learned quickly while hiring for Ocean Vineyard and talking and interacting with HR executives from Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Steiner, Apollo, Global Shipping and Placement etc. The only scam comes into play if you charge a fee and promise to hire people and you don't hire them.

Even your wife and I discussed my e-recruiting business, after you mentioned it to her, naturally she saw the website and could have expressed any concern if she thought it was a scam. The only comment she made to me was that she had spoken to Michael about it and Michael couldn't believe that Nile was interested in a “head hunting” project. Connie told me that there didn't seem to be a lot of money in that enterprise. I never discussed the full details with Connie or Michael, but I did tell Connie that I don't need to make a million dollars per month to be commercially satisfied. Connie and even you Peter were rightfully thinking on a business scale that could repay your debts from Ocean Vineyard as quickly as possible. I on the other hand was thinking on a level of personal peace of mind and a significant reduction in pressure and a complete exit from the rat race. We had a value conflict, different values, different vision.

I'm keenly aware of your position of power Peter, it's easy for you to claim... yes Nile has a conviction record, I tried to help him, he tried to sabotage my company, but I didn't get rid of him, many others I got rid of yes when demonstrations of incompetence emerged, but no not Nile, he was a down trodden African American that I tried to help, he tried to scam people and use my company to do it, shame on him, he should be charged, arrested and thrown into jail because I had no prior knowledge of anything, I don't know what came over him, I had no idea...plus he's a devout follower of the NOI, a suppressed reverse racist, a cyber extortionist, and internet stalker blah blah blah. Your mindset Peter I do understand, and the system favors your mindset, it's very neat and succinct on the surface, until someone digs just a little deeper.

Need I remind you that many people thought that selling $3.00 & $4.00 per bottle wine for $70.00 + per bottle was a scam. Yet when the finer points are examined, it is lawfully considered successful marketing by using the auction method of selling wines! The concept which was introduced to you by Michael. The perception of fraud is only present for someone who refuses to focus on the facts. The downside of having a conviction record is that people shoot first and ask questions later.

Next: Out of the country, where is Nile?

To appear surprised that I ended up in South America is also nonsense Peter, I told you and your wife previously that since Ocean Vineyard hadn't panned out my goal would be to leave the country, clear my head and plan a financial recovery. That recovery included relocating to a nearby third world country where the standard of living is acceptable, the cost of living is low so long as you have US dollars coming in, and the girls are easy on the eyes. Connie suggested that I go to the Dominican Republic because she has family there that could look out for me, plus Michael was living there and operating there.

After having a conversation with a friend Leo, who had previously lived briefly in the Dominican Republic, and several conversations with Michael, and also weighing my own interest and personal goals, I decided that Colombia was more attractive to me since I had a good friend also an American who was well established and lived there for many years with his family in a safe neighborhood. So I ended up in Colombia South America. Plus when I was moving out of my building, my neighbor, your best friend Simon saw me moving. He and I talked, I told him where I was going, he extended me his best wishes, and we shook hands in the lobby of the building. You expect me and the readers of your blog to believe that Simon never told you of my whereabouts! Plus at the time my cell phone from Miami still worked in Colombia, and my email account hadn't changed. You must not have been looking very hard to reach or contact me Peter.

Next: Emotional Blackmail & Dinner at the Four Seasons

Peter, for someone who claims on your blog, that I was a suspected saboteur and an incompetent, I find it astonishing that after Ocean Vineyard ceased operations, you invited me over to dinner at your new place. Before arriving to this dinner I'm thinking to myself, finally you've got a check for my $30,000, for the arrears compensation, but this was not the case. You and your wife wanted me “Mr. incompetent” sufferer of “suppressed reverse racism” to help you to start and build a direct sales organization with a successful direct sales leader from Boston! You and your wife were excited about converting an Italian skin care line which you had exclusive access to, into a direct sales business model, similar to the detailed businesses model and detailed business plan that I provided you as a potential exit strategy and redirection for Ocean Vineyard's large warehoused inventory of unsold wine!

After listening to this and exchanging ideas over a pleasant dinner, I asked you where the funding for this new business was coming from, since apparently everyone was strapped for cash after Ocean Vineyard. I remarked, if you have money enough for this new business (which required at least $500,000 to test) then you have money to pay me the $30,000 that you owe me! I told you both that I have my own interest to pursue and that I only want and need what is owed to me. I didn't want to be dependent on the ideas of others, plus I wasn't eager to repeat the business chemistry. I had already lost enough but I would be pleased if I could just acquire what was stipulated within our partnership contract as a base salary which was fair and right, which was in arrears for at least 6 months!

Peter as you well know, Connie excused herself from the room, so you and I could talk amongst ourselves in the living room about the financial matter, not pleased with what she was 'overhearing', shortly thereafter, Connie stormed into the room and started yelling at me about how Peter doesn't have any money and how he may have to sell some of the valuable paintings on the wall just to stay afloat. She then became very agitated and stated that I was threatening your health by causing you stress, and that nobody is getting any money from Peter until Peter pays back her mother who borrowed against her clear titled house to support the failed Ocean Vineyard business, against the advice of Connie's older sister. When Connie cooled down, I exited the Four Seasons and decided finally to leave the country for a fresh start, clean slate, and a 6 month recovery plan, without the money that I was expecting and entitled to from Ocean Vineyard.

As a human being Peter though within my right, I never pushed you too hard because I value the sanctity of life and I value health. Therefore after you were hospitalized, whenever the health card was presented to me (emotional blackmail) on your behalf by Connie, I would always reduce my traction even if I knew that I was correct. Money comes and goes, but people don't. I don't like how the night ended, but as I indicted to you previously, I had two choices, either I kept badgering you about the money issue, and I knew I was just one in a line of creditors and not the priority, or I could leave the country, recharge my battery, let things cool down, put something together with only the website and what was in my brain until I could financially recover and return to the states within 6 months. That was my plan. No intent to defraud anyone at anytime ever!

Next: Poseidon International and Sea Escape Cruises

The position that I gained “unauthorized access” from Poseidon is laughable considering that everything that I acquired through Poseidon was given to me. As you may or may not know, whenever Maan Barazi and Miranda were not present in the office to sign the required employment letters for Poseidon's new hires, the employment letters were brought to me by your secretary to endorse. The fact that I retained copies of everything that I signed does not make the documentation solely your property, or the property of Poseidon. Furthermore, the employment contracts and most of the employment letters for Ocean Vineyard's new hires were brought to me for my signature. The official contact name on those Visa Entry letters was my name as well as the official contact telephone number for immigration, which was my cell phone number. Again, I didn't seek out the contracts, the contracts were given to me for endorsement.

The fact that I maintained copies of the forms does not make them solely your property or Ocean Vineyard's property, perhaps if you paid me what you owe me you could claim complete ownership. And the reality that many of the employees were hired by me, from around the world, to work on cruise ships worldwide with simply a series of phone interviews, a resume and a photograph, without ever meeting face to face is as factual now as it was when the information was published on the website for my e-recruiting enterprise. But I already explained this to you via email. You just chose to provide a half truth to your blog audience to frame me within a self serving manner, and in an attempt to preserve your dented reputation. These facts also erode your misleading claims provided within your Sept email:

“Sun, 30 Sep 2007 17:46:50 +0000

You have been using me and my company, as evidenced by the unauthorized

display of my present and former crew members on your website (you

gained unauthorized access to them through our files in our office...).”

I've noticed that you possess at least two faces and you talk with a forked tongue. You say and conduct yourself one way with me, then you say and act one way with law enforcement and your friends and colleagues. But all lies and deceit have a way of catching up with people, you don't have to look very far to realize this, you are an intelligent person. I know you can do the math on this one. You are in a sort of karmic quicksand and you don't even realize it, the only way out is to confront the truth. There is too much of a fact pattern and paper trail to support the truth.

Next: eCruiseShipJobs contracts

The good news is within the contract that you asked me for that I sent you months ago, it bears witness to the allotted 6 month time frame for me to deliver jobs to those Jamaican based affiliates, as well as the parameters of the relationship. Also my affiliate contracts were unambiguous about the scope of the engagement. I'm very happy to read from your blog that according to your account, 2 people complained about being scammed presumably because they were promised jobs for money by the recruiter, (in Jamaica) not me or my website, since neither the website nor my contracts promised jobs for money. In fact you have a copy of the contract and unless you feel that your eyes are lying to you then you can focus on the facts and not the misguided perception that you chose to promote. Perhaps you care to post this contract on your blog as well.

I also have copies of my communications strongly admonishing the recruiter who actually made the error of promising jobs for money AFTER I told her office (JobQuest) that what one of her staff members was doing is illegal and unacceptable conduct! Just so you know, the president of that company informed me that the employee was suspended for 2 weeks without pay for that error!

Her office was at error not me, and I knew it, and I expressed this to her in writing and in strong terms when your friend at law enforcement started sending me emails implying misguided and very ill timed fraud theories.

The terms and conditions of our affiliate partnership agreement were clear. No jobs for money period, no representations of jobs for money. Any representations of jobs for money is a violation of our agreement and constitutes grounds for termination of our affiliate relationship, all advertising must first receive approval by me prior to media exposure etc. Subsequent to the incident ALL material documents which represented our relationship had at the top, a bold disclaimer reflecting that no job guarantee existed simply based on submitting the application or fee. This way there could be no misunderstanding. Intentional or unintentional. I discovered this only AFTER a phone interview was conducted, which was an element of preventative filtering and compliance within the telephone script. When this misrepresentation was discovered, I emailed and phoned Jobquest and put them on notice about this delicate and unacceptable conduct.

My other recruitment partner made no such error having over 20 years experience within maritime recruitment, whereas JobQuest was new to maritime recruitment and I imagine someone within JobQuest attempted to make short cuts, or there was an oral miscommunication within JobQuest. Had everyone abided by the terms and conditions indicated within the Affiliate Partnership Agreement and the Agency application agreement, the problem would have never surfaced.

What you did Peter as I explained to you in a prior email, was to lead me on by giving me the false impression that you would assist me, by prolonging your response times to your due diligence request, after I already told you it was a time sensitive situation which expired after 6 months. You requested contracts and applications which I and one of my recruitment partners in Jamaica provided you with upon request, then you waited until after the 6 month contract job delivery period expired (which you were fully aware of) to decide to inform me of your law enforcement affiliation with your “friends” designed to “bring me down” and to decline assistance to my independent enterprise along with your continued refusal to pay me what you owe me. You deliberately delayed action with me since only in so doing could your law enforcement friend's fraud theory prove accurate. By having acted prior to the 6 month deadline or having simply paid me what you owe me, your proper anticipated action would have completely undermined law enforcement's flimsy fraud theory. Instead you chose improper, calculated, and unanticipated action. Peter, you are an effective diabolical saboteur, and certainly not incompetent at it.

It is true, I did inform you that credibility with my affiliates was at stake and a critical issue. You asked me exactly how much money the affiliates submitted from the process, I provided you with this information. To which you replied... “Fri, 28 Sep 2007 11:08:32 -0700 (PDT) I do suggest that you return the money that you have received as advanced payments. Doing so will keep you out of any trouble.”

This confident reply from you could have only been supported by your friends within law enforcement.

I then replied to you that I would gladly return the money since you decided after so long not to hire anyone after giving the false impression that you would, but I also told you to simply pay me the $30,000 that Ocean Vineyard owed me, since I didn't have any cash flow coming in the entire time you were dragging your feet with me on your decision. Plus there were cost involved with me traveling and waiting around for your replies in expensive foreign cities. The idea being I would resolve the entire matter with or without your hr help so long as I had the $30,000 that I was lawfully entitled to. Once I sent you that email suggesting you to pay your arrears obligation of $30,000 in order for me, according to your own written expression; to stay “out of any trouble” true to form, you played ostrich by burying your head in the ground, and you ignored me completely until your Merry Christmas email reply wish, which was around 3 months later.

Your actions demonstrate to me that although you had the ability to assist, and keep me out of any trouble (the right thing to do if you were sincere) instead you withheld total support to undermine my progress. Accordingly your friends at law enforcement would pursue enforcement action against me, (easy to accomplish since I have a conviction record) thereby eliminating the need for you to lawfully pay me what you owe me. Based on the account of your blog commentary, nothing else makes sense. You figure if I'm tied up with the legal process and without the financial means to fight, then I'm doomed. We all know how the justice system works, those with the most money usually win.

Your conduct was nothing more than a calculated delay tactic that you deployed in order to avoid paying me what you rightfully owe me, $30,000.00, and to artificially bolster law enforcement's weak intent to defraud theory, which is very low, very low indeed Peter. I even clearly indicated to you that if you didn't help, because of my conviction record the situation would escalate to a legal issue. You had two choices, or so I thought; pay me what you owed me (keeping me out of any trouble as you indicated as the cure) or assist me by hiring someone. The time lines of our interaction is very significant and are recorded with emails which are dated and timed, and the telephone calls and voice messages that you left me while I was in Colombia, and the communications that we exchanged while I was in Venezuela, Spain and London.

I even informed my family and friends that everything was going to be ok and that Peter would be helping. They asked me, how do you know? I replied because I've worked with Peter long enough to know that if he was going to say NO to the assistance, he would have said No already, plus he owes me and I made the deal attractive for him and he makes money for doing next to nothing. The reality is I figured you still could use a boost in paying back your obligations since I knew you hadn't eliminated prior Ocean Vineyard debt! "Peter says No very quickly but if he takes his time and is slow, then he's in it. Thats just his work pattern." My words to select family and friends. I kept everyone in the loop via email attachments in order to ensure that everyone was clearly aware of my efforts and situation with you.

You see Peter the issue of our conflict has always been impersonal, the issue is money, the money that I diligently earned and am lawfully entitled to. You deliberately withholding it from me and your deceitful law enforcement manuevorings now makes it personal. The recruitment business does not need you to work, only without funding would it need you. And just like I indicated to you in my prior email that you misrepresented on your blog, I required an investor OR the money that Ocean Vineyard owed me, but not both. If you were unclear before, perhaps my fault, hopefully you are clear now. Pay me what you owe me not because there is a gun pointed at your head, but because it's the principled thing to do.

When you implied that you didn't want to be the proxy for the company, I indicated to you that this is also not a problem as I already had someone lined up for the required position. That someone had close to 20 years ship experience. This is the person that I informed you would need office space in Miami. Clearly you were preferred, but not the only solution. You also chose to ignore that fact as well within your blog. Should this matter ever involve litigation, I doubt if your conduct would acquit itself to a jury. But then again, it's possible with your connections and resources that you will survive unscathed from that as well. Stranger things have happened.

Next: Identitiy theft

Yes I used your info to make a mobile phone payment and some small utility payment, previously you or your wife did it yourselves, but just like when we dealt with this issue amongst ourselves in 2006, had you reconciled your outstanding obligation to me, it would have never happened. Then of course I asked you to just pay some of the outstanding balance as a good faith gesture, I expressed to you that I was struggling since I am basically unemployable, and you played ostrich and never replied to the email. This is your well established pattern, gripe about other trivial things to distract your family, friends, and colleagues away from the central issue, your arrears payroll obligation of $30,000.

One question, did you tell your law enforcement task force FRIENDS, or any of your family or innocent colleagues the reason that I used your info to cover small expenses is because you scammed and defrauded me out of your contractual obligation of $30,000? Did you inform officer Jeff of both sides of the situation of your lame Identity theft accusation or did you volunteer both sides which would equate to the truth? My records, your signature on an arrears compensation document to my PO, my partnership contract, my former probation officer and your wife, are my most prominent exemplars of your vicious inhumane crime of financial terrorism! “This could happen to you,” You've got some nerve putting that on your blog. Weird. Do your friends, colleagues, family and law enforcement friends know that your own mother in law among others accused you of fraud in writing and sought legal action as a remedy.

Among other things, I have a copy of a revealing letter from the law firm representing one of your ex partners implying that any federal fraud was soley your responsibility, absent any knowledge of your partner, and only you were to blame. The clear implication is that you alone defrauded your ex partner and creditor along with the public. In short, your ex partner could not have willfully or knowingly committed mail fraud! This extremely criminally experienced lawyer recognizes the legal significance of the federal mail fraud statue which requires “willful and knowing intent to defraud” as the core nail in the coffin element for a fraud conviction. Clearly you can see where this could be headed.

Within your blog you offer only a self serving section of the letter to you from Burell without including the core aspect which is the $30,000 that you owe me. You also play ostrich with the $21,000 that you owe Sam, and the $850 you owe Stephanie. The letter from Burell did mention the reason for the payment demand and deadline for me, yet you chose to post on your blog only a small sanitized section of the letter which suited your self serving side of your deceit and framed it as “Cyber Extortion”

Yet previously you sent me an email expressing that my recruiting model sounds like “a good idea”, then you later flip flopped and accused me of “unauthorized use” of your files etc, from a website that you had seen and shared with others long before you complained about any so called “unauthorized use”. Is Cyber Extortion a position that your law enforcement task force friends told you to apply without both sides of the facts or while knowing the facts? Since by your own admission within an email that you sent me they are your “friends”, I must conclude that they are aware of the facts, therefore I will ensure that IAB receives a copy of this reply to your blog. This way if there is an honest law enforcement task force member they will weigh the facts and not your one sided and self serving deceit.

Next: Michael Mouyal & How they all came together!

Yes I did work for Michael, in fact as you know I managed his Miami operations, but not in a way that would apply any legal jeopardy to myself. I was on Federal probation at the time, Michael spoke to and saw my PO several times, hell, I introduced them and didn't even have to, and I cleaned up the office by materially changing the scripts and firing the old toxic employees who wouldn't operate under the new legal compliance guidelines that I implemented after working closely with a retained criminal defense attorney. You think for a second that I would illegally run an international publishing office while on Federal probation and jeopardize my freedom for a bunch of fools who refused to adhere to legal compliance, no way, they had to go! Many of those employees were even imported from Canada and retained bad habits, yet they were all eliminated under the new compliant guidelines that I implemented. This is why Michaels Miami office was never raided and why he was never charged in the United States for fraud.

Legal compliance is what Michael needed to do in order to stay clean and compliant within the United States for his publishing operation. In fact working with him was my first post conviction job in Miami. I was promoted to run the entire office after over achieving in sales and efficiency ratings within less than 2 months. And no, Michael had no prior knowledge of my conviction situation until he wanted to replace the prior manager with me, although under no obligation, it was only then that I felt the need to share with him that I was on probation. The promotion was based on achievement and results nothing more.

Michael was initially upset because true compliance caused him a lot of money yet I explained to him from experience, you either comply or you will go to prison, America is far different than Canada where Michael was most profitable. I was living breathing proof of the US federal fraud statues and their broad latitude. The reduction in revenue caused Michael to be vulnerable to Roberto's unique scam which purportedly cost him over 1 million.

You recall the scam Peter, the scam that I warned Michael about repeatedly but he ignored. The 40 million dollar+ international military procurement and United Nations deal that never materialized that I worked on around the clock along with trained and honorably discharged retired US Army logistics and procurement specialist. The scam that flushed Roberto out as a rogue CIA agent from Panama! You told Michael that a thorough background check by your CIA friend verified that Roberto was a rogue former agent, and Michael phoned me immediately after your disclosure and begged me to accompany him when he had to confront his then significant other with the bad news.

It freaked Michael out when you revealed this news to him at Rosinella because he kept me up all night on the phone discussing it and we were both concerned for our safety and unsure how to best communicate this new awareness to Roberto. As a consequence we decided to close down the office and ceased operations after a substantial investment of resources. You then later verified the account when I asked you directly about the facts. Come to think of it, thats exactly how you and I met, gee wilickers how time flieth.

Next: Nile asked Peter for $$ while in Spain

Yes I asked you for $ when I was in Spain because in Europe money from Venezuela couldn't be converted because of Hugo Chavez's anti American politics, which I didn't realize until I arrived in Spain en route to meet you and the money changers threw me a curve ball. Again if I owed you $30,000 and you phone me with an emergency request for a couple of grand or a plane ticket because of a snag in politics and money, I wouldn't hesitate to help, in fact to me it wouldn't even matter what your issue was, if you needed help and I could help then help would be fast arriving. It's never someone's responsibility to remind of a pending obligation, it is the duty of the one who is obligated to remember! I helped you during a time of crises so you could get on your feet, you help me during my time of crises so I can get on my feet, finished.

Just like I didn't hesitate to help you when I knew you didn't have $ for pay roll and other critical corporate expenses, yet I and others stood by you uncompensated for months with dedication and perseverance. But thats just how I think. I told you when I was in Venezuela that I was on my way to meet you in Ethiopia or London for a face to face meeting regarding my business, and I told you I needed your help! The closer I got to you geographically the more difficult it was to reach you and you stopped replying to my emails and calls in a timely manner. Prior to that you seemed chatty, happy, eager, receptive and open minded to help.

Within your blog you imply that there is some kind of manhunt out for me, the fact is when I offered to your law enforcement investigator task force “friend” to return to Miami simply to clear the matter up with a colleague, he replied by telling me that it was too late, and that my reply was untimely. By untimely he wanted me on a plane within 2 days of his demand and I expressed to him that it was high travel season with airline tickets and last minute bookings which were impossible for me to accommodate at the time, plus I had my colleagues schedule to consider.

I indicated to him that I could arrive within two weeks perhaps sooner, his reply... forget about it, it's too late, “I can track you down like a blood hound, blah blah blah” I told him he was unreasonable with his last minute demands. Far too demanding and unreasonable, especially for someone who refused to indicate to me which law enforcement agency he was with after I asked him repeatedly. He made a request for me to meet with him in Miami I believe on a Wednesday and he wanted me in Miami by Friday which I couldn't manage. Then he starts demanding that I fax him a copy of my passport which of course I ignored, again since he wouldn't even tell me which agency he was with and refused to authenticate who he was. I also reasoned that if he was law enforcement he would have my passport details and anything else that he needed to have, not only to track me but to apprehend me worldwide if needed. The fact that he boasted of tracking me down like a “bloodhound” in Colombia from tracing my internet IP address from emails was unimpressive, especially since I was never “hiding” in Colombia in the first place.

I offered him a reasonable time frame based on my capabilities and the capabilities of my intended colleague, he refused and that was the last I heard about it. If this stimulated a manhunt this is news to me, and it must not be a serious manhunt since I've travelled much since then, plus you know how to reach me anytime, just like all of your law enforcement friends do.

Next: Your blog, Plobnig.blogspot.com

When someone Googles Peter K. Lobnig a video emerges.
The Russian mob affiliation video was very bad form but I had no control over that, that was Burell's associates idea. He felt that more people would read about the Russian mob and then read about you by default, plus he's not concerned with offending, he's concerned with the quality of eyeballs that view a blog. He's just using the Russian Mob crime story to piggy back off of the Russian mob story traffic.

You could even think of it as a new concessionaire start up 'Ocean Vineyard' which gains instant credibility, interest and eyeballs just by being operational on the worlds most recognized and award winning Cruise line like Celebrity Cruises, 'piggy-backing', from a more recognized and interesting central character, this is a better way to think of it.

No one is implicating you as a Russian mobster Peter. It's like when you go to a movie but the movie cross promotes another movie during the preview. Thats a better way to think about it. It's a very old viral and vertical marketing tactic, yet still effective. His approach is sound: “they don't care about you, your family, your reputation, your obligations, if they did they would simply pay you what they owe you, you shouldn't care about them either!”

Perhaps referring to you as an Austrian mobster is more appropriate. In fact I clearly recall Philip Levine referring to the cruise industry as the “Austrian Mob” during our meeting at his estate.

Where there is smoke, there is fire, thats how law enforcement types think, plus you have been surrounded by convicts, and rumored criminals birds of a feather blah blah blah, you know the cliché. More significantly you have wilfully and knowingly broken multiple federal and state felony laws, with 2 of your companies, these are facts, and there is abundant evidence of this. The reality is that currently no one is paying attention to it. With all the free time on my hands, I will ensure that someone of significance pays attention to your well documented illegal conduct. Some of the same legal statues that your friends and collegaues at Sea Escape were vulnerable to, prosecuted and convicted for, are the same statues that you wilfully and knowingly violated. Don't take my word for it, ask your lawyer!

The issue that I will devote tactical efforts towards is does a double standard exist in who and what is charged and prosecuted at a Federal level within the state of Florida. And exactly how much is your enjoyment and protection of law enforcement officials worth? Must every business owner abide by the federal fraud statues with the exception of Peter K. Lobnig, if so why? If not, then why hasn't he been charged, prosecuted and convicted? These become public interest and due process matters, not extortionist matters. More importantly, how many of your friends and colleagues are you willing to involve in this affair just because you choose to refrain from paying me what is rightfully owed to me?

If law is for sale and you are the buyer it will surface. I will know because of the spotlight that will be focused into your dealings, in this sense yes the world is flat! Not because I'm a “cyber extortionist” as you shallowly labeled me, but because I'm rightfully disgruntled and have a lot of time on my hands and enough talent to frustrate you and to deliver the desired result. You are provoking me, and you still foolishly or stubbornly underestimate me.

Plus now I clearly recognize that your motive for misleading law enforcement and wanting me behind bars has everything to do with your demonic desire to unlawfully withhold earned compensation from me. Diabolical and cowardly tactics of a mentally disturbed person that I once considered a friend. When you pay me what I'm lawfully owed, and cease from exhibiting unlawful slave master oriented conduct, I'll have better things to do with my time than to stimulate interest in your life, it's that simple.

Next: Cyber Extortionist, Internet Stalker, Suppressed reverse racism, NOI: You decide

Extortionist: Pay me what I'm lawfully owed pursuant to the terms and conditions of my Independent Contractor Contract & Partnership Agreement! Unlawfully obtaining money from Ocean Vineyard would be extortion. As it stands Ocean Vineyard skillfully and unlawfully defrauded me and stole my time.

Internet stalker: Hardly. Since my means of support are limited thanks to you I have a lot of idle time on my hands, and you know what they say about idle hands.

Suppressed reverse racism: You may be on to something here, because I expressed to you in an email in 2006 that “I hope you don't think that I worked on your plantation for free for 6 months” Yes I suppose, by your outlook, that marks me shallowly as one with “suppressed reverse racism.” Slavery is one form of free labor or work without compensation! This is how I feel when anyone would attempt to steal my time as you have successfully done so far, and Michael foolishly attempted. For the life of me I don't understand completely how people like you think. Well, at least in one sense I do. Michael thought in a way that motivated him to seek legal remedies to bar me from working with you. Now thats something to think heavily about on a Sunday afternoon at the beach... another time. Jeepers where's the NOI when I need them!

Speaking of Plantations, it' a little ironic that on Wed, 22 Aug 2007 09:09:21 +0000 you sent me this email:

“...I am in process of setting up another business in Ethiopia, I am to

take over 100000 hectars of land to develop an agro-bio-fuel plantation

for bio-diesel in Europe.” ....”Please give me some detail on your business model...”

Peter, I do hope that you are paying those people who are working on your er.....Ethiopian...Plantation. Sorry couldn't resist! Please don't turn them into.um errr...... slaves! ...or those uncompensated for their work. Sorry, still couldn't resist! Ok moving along.

Did you know that your friend Michael's problems didn't emerge until after he stiffed his sales staff in Barbados? The incident sparked the wrong kind of press and led to further investigation of Michael's business practices. (law enforcement types understand that if a business owner will steal and lie to their employees they will do the same to customers and anyone, or where there's smoke there's fire) This investigation caused Michael many years of stress and ultimately a conviction, a million dollar fine, a bar from certain business practices, and community service. Is this how you want to be remembered.. really? You can read about it here http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/078/RipOff0078688.htm

Do you think those folks in Barbados felt like slaves Peter, the way I do now. For many folks and Black folks in particular not being compensated for their work product is a very personal issue,it strikes at the rawest nerve imaginable. I guess Natalia from ICDF was not far from the mark when she accused your wife Connie of slavery and hung up on her during a telephone call for Connie's abrasive treatment towards Jaco while working in the ICDF warehouse. Slavery is not about color, it's about conduct, wicked predatory inhumane conduct! Since Jaco is white and Natalia is white Hispanic would you consider Natalia a suppressed reverse racist as you described me within your blog?

By the way, among other things that you are incorrect about in your blog, the Gazette which you consider a fictitious paper is one of the papers which reported on the convictions of Michael and Albert Mouyal, it's a Canadian paper. How difficult do you think it would be for a crime reporter to have interest in another syndicated story involving Michael and his recently convicted brother Al, or even Celebrity Cruises for that matter. You are making a big mistake in judgment by thinking you can defraud and steal my time without consequence Peter, a big unnecessary mistake.

The fact that you are offering a $30,000 reward for my whereabouts clearly indicates that you have the means to finally pay me, so why don't you just pay me what you owe so we can put an end to this nonsense, it's very unnecessary! When I left Miami I did it with the intent to recover financially with my recruitment business with your help in mind, at the appropriate time like I explained to you months ago. I also gave you breathing room regarding my arrears base compensation because of all people, I was aware of your debt situation with me, Patrick, Joey, Connie's mother, and even the legal garnishment on your corporate account for Poseidon; the result of a judgment awarded against you on behalf of a creditor which you..... failed to pay as agreed. Plus unlike most, I was also aware of your income to debt ratio, at least that which is on paper.


Everyone was on my back about you, family, friends and creditors, but I told everyone, if he doesn't have it, he doesn't have it. Everyone else would remark, 'people who live in the Four Season's are not broke. People who drive top of the line luxury vehicles are not broke, people who eat out every night are not broke.' And even now it's worse, because I'm hearing.... 'people who travel back and forth to Ethiopia from Miami are not broke!' 'People who are starting businesses in Ethiopia and operate Bio diesel fuel plantations are not broke' My prior reply, if he doesn't have it to give me he doesn't have it, plus I'll just give him more time to recover and work on my own recovery.

I planted the seed with you prior to leaving Miami without opposition, this was encouraging. I'll even cut Peter in on the profit sharing since I knew that would be the correct approach to take. I even considered the entire situation a blessing in disguise which required my continued patience.

That was my pragmatic mind at work, my emotional mind had long taken a back seat. It never once crossed my mind Peter that you would wickedly abandon me in every direction. Peter, you've put me in a very bad position, then and now and without even a hint of humanity.

Moreover, you have not even had the decency or humanity to simply apologize for your economic terrorism, yeah 'economic terrorism', I like the sound of that one, God bless those visually rich metaphors! Reminds me a bit of the literary dramaticism that you authored within your blog to incite, about me being a devout follower and admirer of the Nation of Islam. Weird.

What I told your wife and her mother during a discussion on faith after being asked about the NOI, is that I admire many of the contributions to America and black society in particular that the Nation of Islam promotes; economic independence, fair mindedness, a perfect hatred for demonic and inhumane conduct, a better health diet, the million man march, etc, but I'm not comfortable with the more aggressive or militant approaches to African-American politics and social issues. I had the same conversation with a Rabbi in the lobby at the Santa Maria and there was no conflict with our reasoning.

The same comparison holds true for the current presidential administration, some of what has been done is positive and agreeable to me and some of it is negative and I reject it on principle. So whats your point Peter? Would you have made the same attempt at religious & ethnic incitement between a Christian who supports the doctrine of Pat Robertson and a Pope supporting Catholic Christian? We both know the answer to that. Your first baby's momma, I don't know what she is, your first wife is a Muslim, your second wife Catholic, you are an Atheist so what, between the two wives, which have a faith that you don't agree with, which has ever held an unpopular or non mainstream view? Which religious view point suffers from bad pr perception, which may be at odds with the facts? Many people consider Atheism unpopular or controversial, but as you say it's America, everyone is entitled to their views, who cares!

That was a real cheap shot, especially since anyone who knows me knows clearly that was probably the silliest thing authored on your blog, it makes you appear unwell. During the time I had this conversation with your wife and her mother, my significant other as you know was Jewish, you remember her, she joined us during breakfast on her way to her Brickell office, upon being introduced to you and Connie, she asked you where you lived, you looked her in the eye and lied to her face... remember. You told her that you and Connie lived in a house in Coral Gables, yet I had prior knowledge that you had silently relocated into the Four Seasons. Weird. If I didn't understand your motivation at the time, I would consider you a mythomaniac.

NEXT: and finally

Within your blog you indicate that you wanted to give a down trodden African American an opportunity blah blah blah, the most genuine and sincere way to live up to your words is to simply pay this down trodden African American what you lawfully owe him, finished. It's a very honest action for you to incline towards. What you are clearly exhibiting by your current actions towards me, your friends, your family, and your innocent colleagues, is your deceit and continued lack of financial responsibility.

How many of your friends, family, or innocent colleagues would honestly hold you in high regard if they worked with you under a contract that you violated by deceit and manipulation and continued to stubbornly refuse to honor, and deceitfully try to maneuver and squirm your way out of paying, with the aid and threat of law enforcement influence and action? Instead of honoring your obligation you choose to incite, obscure and distract from the central monetary issue at hand.

On your blog you offer a $30,000 reward for knowing my whereabouts! I hereby claim my reward of

$30,000 for officially knowing my whereabouts! Now you owe me $60,000. Since you have accurate banking coordinates, feel free to wire the money into the account anytime and email me the confirmation number.

Since I and all of your innocent friends, family and law enforcement friends are aware that you Peter K. Lobnig are a man of your word, and of high moral integrity and financial responsibility; plus your friends, colleagues and law enforcement might be reading this.

Trusting that your inner man is as good as your public image.

Sincerely yours,

Nile A. Zurri

PS. I'm not sure how Connie thinks these days, but there was a time that even when Connie was wrong, she eventually acknowledged her wrong, and tried to make amends. No rigid ego or twisted rationale to the facts or to the core issue, just a genuine display of a human being.
