The Rowes and Florida.

In the past day or so Paula Rowe, Lee Rowe’s wife writing from his email address, has informed us that her husband is not opening up an operation in Florida.

She also says that she personally is totally unaware of the Florida site. In spite of the fact that the Professional Specialist Services LLC web site, refers back to the UK business and carries the same name as Lee and Kenneth Rowe’s latest PSS company – changed from Prime Serve Solutions (UK).

Whether such plans have now been dropped, or whether the site was intended to test the waters by alleging that it a PSS business was operational we cannot be certain.

If we take Mrs Rowe’s word on this then it looks like any plans that her husband may or may not have had have been shelved. She says she knows nothing about this and is busy running her own business.

The fact is that this report has stirred up strong feelings and some of the comments on this story have started getting overly personal. While we appreciate that past activities of some Rowe family members may have caused serious consternation to a number of people, some of whom clearly count among our readers, we would prefer it if comments on this site be kept to a more business like level, especially from those of you whom write under a pseudonym.

While the introduction of comments on our web site has generally served a very positive purpose and added a new dynamic source of information, we have a tough role of trying to police this without undue censorship, a hard job at the best of times.

Perhaps we can call a halt to the commenting on this subject– everything has been said on both sides and the whole item appears to have turned into a public scrap and not something that does our industry any credit.

In order to cool the situation we are suspending the original report, but will be keeping an eye on the situation. We would appreciate it if you also could follow our lead. And stop commenting further.
