Concurring Opinion

Evans, Judge,

concurring specially.

With much enthusiasm I hail and concur in the decision by the Supreme Court in this case, which reverses the majority of the Court of Appeals, and affirms the Superior Court of Cobb County. When the case first came to this court, I wrote a lengthy dissenting opinion, and argued optimistically in favor of same when we met en banc, but with no success whatever. But, as Shakespeare says: "All’s well that ends well.”
