Based on his business model, I'm guessing he'll pop in, have a few pictures taken shaking hands, and then leave.Or they'll file past him as they go into the meeting room, and that will be good enough.

I am no longer there, though much family is, but I grew up in Grand Rapids, MI and the DeVos family basically runs that city with money. Sadly, they are very good at the money part so they also get away with lobbying for really heinous things and getting it there. Their last name is a bit of a curse in my mostly very lefty family. In short, eff those dicks.

I just wonder how I am supposed to keep up on the comments AND get work done AND lead my life. Seems like too much. Something's gotta give.

Well, the "lead my life" part sounds sorta optional ...
