SULLIVAN, Judge,

¶1dissenting.

¶2For the reasons set forth in my dissenting opinion to the original decision published March 13, 1986, I dissent from the denial of the Petition for Rehearing.

¶3In addition I would express my disagreement with the suggested modification proposed by Judge Buchanan. If I interpret the proposed modification correctly, it would reverse the summary judgment upon each and every conceivable basis of liability contained in the complaint. In so doing, the modification would require a trial upon the merits upon each theory advanced by the Embers.

¶4The breadth and vagueness of the proposed modification make it, in my view, ill advised. It merely suggests that the summary judgment is erroneous in every respect-even as to possible theories or bases not discussed in the original opinion.

¶5Because I dissent to the denial of rehearing and because Presiding Judge Shields does not concur in the proposed modification, the posture of the case, pending possible transfer to the Supreme Court, is as disclosed in the opinion of March 18, 1986.
