Too bad they didn't succeed before he got it fixed.

Why? He wouldn't do the same for you.

You should have seen how quickly Michiel jumped into the HAM echo and
attempted to take it over as moderator when my system went down and I had
no means to get it back online until the utility company put the power
lines back up after a California brush fire near my home. Fortunately,
there were people here who knew who the echo moderator was and didn't
allow him to move right in and make himself at home.

Yes, a naive one for sure.
