I'm not sure what you mean by "while the company stuffs it down your throat". I didn't say can't be done (have suggested that success doesn't come easily) and by the way who are you refering to when you say "you guys". BTW I've done well enough on this stock and do imagine emotions (I do have a open short position that I'm holding) will put it in orbit again. There has been good discussion/speculation about the Zicam product, however too much focus on just this element. I'm following this one because the volatility means money to be made. I'm on the short side (rather than the long) because of the companies finnancial picture, as such I feel more comfortable selling the highs rather than buying the lows (at least for the time being). You should try to be objective and don't get so emotionally tied up with this thing.
Good companies and management do have a difficult time improving. GUMM has been troubled, and to suggest that they're going to stroll out of their difficulties as easily as its glossed over on this thread is mistaken.
