You have no idea if MC has contacted people personally. You have no idea if he has quietly donated money. You have no idea what he is doing. And regardless of what you THINK he SHOULD be doing, I think it is fair to let people deal with this tragedy in any way they see fit.

You seem to forget that this is a publicly held/traded company and that not only should I know what CPQ is doing but that I have the right to know and the right to be heard as a shareholder. What MC does in his private life and/or how he handles the tragedy personally is of no concern to me.

CPQ is down 13% today because the company, leadership, and the merger are perceived by WS as lame and investors and traders are using today's sell-off to adjust and reposition their portfolios by buying the winners and culling out the weak sisters like CPQ.

You are welcome to your memories of a Catholic training, religious parables, your wife's findings, and your own opinion but for one who thinks that we shouldn't be judgmental, you certainly have no problem finding fault.
Is there a parable in the Bible that says people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones?
