In article VLIIb.707319$Tr4.1787059@attbi_s03,
"Jay Honeck" wrote: I don't mean to be cynical (that's Martin's job), but something doesn't add up here... Capt. Haynes is a retired airline captain, and a sought-after speaker on the mashed-potato circuit. As such he should set for life, and pretty much rolling in money. Yet he can't borrow/raise $250K to save his daughter's life? First of all, do we know that Capt. Haynes and not some other person is behind the public fundraising for his daughter? Secondly, do we know how much Capt. Haynes is making these days, or what his expenses have been through his misfortune? And thirdly, do we know what Capt. Haynes' relationship is with his daughter? One of the articles that I read seemed to suggest that he didn't view his daughter's life as any more important than someone else's, which I thought was a little strange. Maybe I misinterpreted what he said, or perhaps he was misquoted, but even if he was trying to be objective about this sort of thing, it is human nature to value family and friends more than others.
