Well I think the verdict re Jill's open market buy was either (1) a proactive move to save her bacon or (2) she was surprised by the numbers in September like the rest of us. Possibility #1 suggests IMHO Jill's key motive in her stock purchase was self-preservation and possibility #2 indicates simply being asleep at the switch. That's what I call a Hobson's choice. Count me among those in the ever-growing "Dump Jill" camp.

The Learning Company was supposed to be a transforming event. There is no excuse why TLC is losing money. And regarding this debacle on the TLC side, "what did Jill know and when did she know it"?!

A blurb on CNBC re MAT cratering today was the remark that "Many other
issues seen by analysts as significant in the shortfall as well." See: biocognizance.com Can anyone speak to these "other issues." Just analyst conclusion that management can't be relied upon for proper guidance, or more?
