No information at all on this guy...except his name...and that he is retired.
Talk about some very lame reporting by the Amarillo Globe News.
Must have taken this lady with 2 last names...every bit of 5 minutes to write this article.
Wonder if she even bothered to call the guy...and at least get some basic information about him....
More information in the AGN...would get them more credibility and more subscribers.
