[AccessD] I told you of this one before....."wrong direction"

My dad sold a small business in the early 80's. The buyer tried to force a 
non-compete clause that was absolutely ridiculous. My dad would've had to 
move to work! His lawyer told the buyer no way... they haggled for a long 
time, but eventually left it out. I guess you can't blame people for trying, 
we just have to know when to say no.
