: I'm sorry?  It's quite humorous receiving a reply from a so-called company 
: president who calls their prospective clients "idiots".  Well, rest assured, 
: this idiot won't be doing business with you.

Might I suggest that you phone Mr Hollingsworth to inquire if it was
indeed he who sent that message? As you well know, it is notoriously easy
to forge a post or an email. Perhaps it was not actually Mr. Hollingsworth
who sent that response, but someone from one of his competitors. On the
other hand, Mr. Hollingsworth may be a prick from hell; it would pay you
to find out first, though.
