"Imagine I come home and find a crazy man in my house. He is holding a full gas can and a lit match. 'If you don’t sign over the deed to your house,' he screams, 'I will burn this place down.' I refuse, and we enter a standoff for days. Neighbors gather around my home. The police arrive. It is a major scene. The media show up. The newspaper and TV reporters see this as a big story and slap it on the front page and lead the evening news with it: 'Two local residents caught in fierce negotiations. If their talks don’t succeed, a house will go up in flames.'"
