Ditto, all of that. He was fractious and sometimes frustrating, but I liked and respected him.

Is the topic appropriate, and/or has it been discussed before?

It has been discussed before although I'm not sure with it's own specific thread. By all means open a new thread as their are many here will be interested in your first-hand experience.
