Campbell acknowledges he has had personalproblems with board members in the past.

"We've had a number of meetings where thingsgot very heated and very personal and things weresaid that were regretted later," he said.

Campbell concedes, "I said many things that Iregret. I said things that were personallyattacking."

But he claims the entire board often foughtamong themselves, leading to e-mail wars andpersonal confrontations.

"I think, in general, our board degeneratedinto infighting. Professionality was simply outthe window," Campbell said.
