Found this on Blogger, I can't beleive the stupidity and insensitivity of this bloke. Someone send him an email and tell him what a goose he is.

I can't get local counsel in New Orleans to answer their phone, and I don't know why. I wrote a few weeks ago about the incompetence of local counsel in cities across the country, and this is just the latest example. They'd better have a good reason for this, and it had better be more than just some rain. If you can't keep your business running in a perfectly normal climate, you need to either get out of the service industry or move to where there's never a cloud in the sky. But there's simply no excuse for not being at your desk at 8:00 at night to answer calls from the big firm you're working with on a matter very important to a critical client. I've left voice mail, but to no avail. I wish the summer associates were still here, because I could dispatch one of them out there to pay a personal visit to the attorney we're working with and get him to do the work he needs to do by sheer force and intimidation.
