re: #141 Killgore Trout

Here’s the direct quote…

There’s no evidence he played an active role. All we have is a passive role, signed some documents but was not making decisions or running the company. Although he may have retained the ability there’s no evidence he used that ability.

Signing is an active verb. His role was that of the organizational linchpin, without him no deals could possibly go through. “Passive role” makes it sound like he was sleepwalking through life, he was awake and fully aware of what he was doing.
