Hmm... maybe you are right. I didn't see it that way. Anyway, the harsh-ness
of my post wasn't toward Eric, but towards Conan, so I hope I didn't hurt
anyone's feelings here. Whatever is the reason why he didn't appreciate the
gifts, I think at least that the people there made a poor job on organizing
that. It was obvious that they didn't spend much time on this.
I still think the sculpture didn't get any attention from Conan even when they
pointed it out. He looked at the aluminium one and at the cake, but never did
he made any comment or spent any time watching Eric's bust. To me, Eric would
have been better off never accepting this project, but with hind sight, it's
easy for me to say... I guess it could have turned out to be the best project
of his career if it did get the attention it deserved and if it wasn't broken.
