“Loose Cannon”
Larry Johnson and Alcor Vice President/ Treasurer Joe Hovey
LARRY JOHNSON: Why would Mike Darwin do such…I mean, he just got over zealous or…
JOE HOVEY: Yeah. Exactly. Mike is a loose cannon from the word “go.” He is a person who thinks his own needs, requirements will take precedence over all other institutions and all other individuals no matter what. At the same time, there’s no question he’s brilliant, he’s very charismatic, he was President of Alcor, uh, he was very articulate, a great speaker, very effective presence on television.
LARRY JOHNSON: Just didn’t have much patience when it came to waiting for somebody to die.
JOE HOVEY: Exactly. And other things as well. … This whole thing would make a wonderful extended soap opera.
