if he was VFR he was in the wrong place.
perhaps he was VFR and just decided to exit the area on his own which is a possibility.

what was it I did wrong again? I dont recall and do not recall you sitting next to me with a
note pad?

Jeff-

Perhaps the other aircraft was VFR? If it was, the controller is under
no obligation to separate you. Their job is to separate IFR from IFR
aircraft, and on a "time available" basis separate IFR from VFR, and
VFR from VFR. To me it sounds like the controller did everything
right, and you did (most) everything wrong.

I urge you to look back on Jeff's posts... everytime it is a problem
that he encountered that was SOMEONE ELSES fault. The guy can clearly
do no wrong.
