I am kind of bummed right now. I am also VERY ANGRY. I just heard that Sherry Lewis, the children's puppeteer, just died of cancer. I hadn't thought of her in years, but I grew up with Sherry Lewis. I had a crush on her as a small boy. I just can't help but wonder what would have happened if Keith Rhodes hadn't wasted over a year screwing up. . . if he had spent the company's money doing something useful like getting AndroCar ready for product launch instead of wasting it on lawyers in pursuit of Babish and wasting it on lawyers defending himself against charges of his own wrongdoings. What would have happened if he had said, "I can spend company funds fighting Colin Campbell and maybe I can stay in power indefinately through legal maneuvering because Campbell will run out of funds to pay his lawyers before I will. . . OR I could step aside for the good of the company, for the good of humanity. My stepping down is a small price to pay to enable this company to survive and do what it was meant to do. . . develop drug candidates and get dietary supplements out on the market where they can help people. So which should I do? Fight and tear this company apart? Or resign and let someone else takeover who can lead this company in a way that can help humanity? It's a no-brainer. I must step aside. It is the only moral thing to do."

Folks, it is impossible to know what would have happened had Rhodes resigned. It is impossible to prove that PRLN would have had AndroCar on the market and that AndroCar would have saved a lot of lives. But I can't help but wonder. Might Sherry Lewis be alive right now if Rhodes were a better man?

May he rot in hell.
