Hi Don, ya know, Elmo might have something. All this work on buildings is downright wierd. If I understand correctly, the groundbreaking today in San Jose was part 1, part 2 starts soon overhauling the Provo campus if I remember correctly. For an undisclosed amount.

They claim that they are consolidating resources, yet they just laid off 18% of their workforce, and from what I understand have more space then they know what to do with. Why sink all this money into buildings? I understand they plan on leasing unused space, but it sounds more to me like their going into the rental business. What's wrong with this picture. It just is not a wise use of resources at this point in time, at least that I can see. What's crazier, they seem to feel no need to offer an explanation for their actions.

I don't know about the 17th, but it's as good a time as any I guess. Or are they all just plan crazy, and I'm crazy too.
