Request for information

I'd like to know why Lindsay took a course in Management after taking a degree in literature and also like to know how Insead benefitted him - may i have authentic information on this please?

This is not a chat forum, but those pieces of information would be good inclusions into the article if someone were to find reliable sources that comment on them. -- The Red Pen of Doom 13:42, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"He says the smell of chip fat is ruining the neighbourhood"

There must be far more people, all around the world, who think that the smells he sells ruin their neighbourhoods.
