It was a faux pas for sure and I'm also sure Mulally has spoken to him. I don't see any requirement to fire the guy unless he's totally incorridgeable. Lutz(I like the guy) has,in my opinion, made more mistakes in a month than this guy has in a career and I'm sure he has been spoken to as well. He wasn't fired nor should he have been. Oh, I wonder whether Laymon's comments were to be, "off the record." Edit. Just read in Automotive News that Laymon has resigned to take up a position with Chevron.
