John,
Neither wealth, good looks, nor fancy-assed education is a reliable
measure of taste or ability. That's a better rule than Feng Shui, too.
However, these lawyers had all of the above (although I didn't find the He lawyer
anywhere near as attractive as She, He [and their client, the Insurance Company]
was convinced that The Court Reporter [another hottie] would have shown him
the time of his life on the judge's bench in the midst of the trial), and were
smart as hell.  The other side, fortunately, were idiots and crooks. These
guys when not associating with you earn most of their keep representing
gentlemen. At that point, they were representing an insurance company. I am
disappointed not to have worked with them since. I'd suggest not having meetings on hot
days in places without AC. Sounds like another non-Feng-Shui good rule.
