Not too long for me. Interesting case which I religiously followed (along with the many OF tales).

Sometimes the story has to be long.
Frinstance (that's a sign that this is going to be long) . . . when my dad died, and his broker had stolen and churned several hundred thousand dollars away, and I had done a couple months of forensic accounting, tracking every dollar from 1989 until 2002, (see, already too long for some) . . . & the day finally arrived when we met in the attorney's office . . . attorney, executor, stepsister and me . . . for the purpose of trying to show movement of $ to the perps account(s) and to determine an amount . . .
when it came my turn, my presentation was necessarily quite extensive . . . transaction by transaction for several years.
Prior to my turn, my stepsister had been glancing at her watch frequently, to let everyone know she was much more important than everyone else, even though I had traveled several hundred miles and she had traveled one mile to be there.
During my presentation, her watch-glancing became much more frequent, as attorney and I matched exact amounts on the same day going from Dad's accounts into perps account(s), alledgedly at that time, since he had not pleaded guilty yet.
& when I/we finally finished, she said, "Could you say it shorter?"
& I said, "No."

I have never met anyone who did not make me happy, some when they arrive and some when they leave.
