You're right,...I had the wrong target so to speak.

A little off topic but, do MOH recipients retain any sort of agent or manager? Someone to step in and say "this isn't a good idea" when a recipient may think about doing something unbecoming of the award? I'm not saying any MOH recipients need one but new-found fame can be a downward spiral for some individuals, and going through it alone could have some consequences not only for the individual but also for the sanctity of the award.
