Re: "One-time write down was a good thing."

Jerry excuse me if I didn't make myself clear. I really do not have a problem with one time write-down's if they are for one time but I believe INPR took a write-down last year on the campus property? And that in itself is also really not what I'm trying to convey.

It's the lack of any statement of finality or solution of that financial burden that INRP seems to be holding on to? If they would clarify what their forward plans are concerning that huge expense I feel that would be a huge hurdle they have cleared for the Wall St. show. And I feel they would receive more recognition or coverage from the Street as a serious cost "preventive" management team. But they just seem to do it and then walk away each time as if to say this is who we are take it or leave it.

I hope it's just me worrying and none of this has any merit. But I sure would like to have it clarified because the way it stands it's anyone's guess and that will leave people to run for safety. As they say the Street doesn't like uncertainty. Especially from a company that is claiming to be open and encouraging other's to be with their products.

I don't know if anyone else notices it but IMO there seems to be a conflict of ideas steaming from the core.
