I agree,, theres nothing "masterful" here. As My first retail employer used to say to me when I complained about all the business the discounter down the street was doing,, " anybody can give it away" and thats just what Chuckie and Pascoe did. Lots of people here will defend Pascoe. I for one am not impressed. I can't imagine any quality CEO type who would play second fiddle to soomeone like "Chuck" for over a year. He never had the moxie to break out on his own and apparently could never garner the internal support to shove Chuck aside. Oh and Larry,, now that you can see who's out of step here.. why don't you sell your shares and go whine somewhere else? CRDoug

I don't understand, john. If the deal is so bad and the stock has such little merit, why not take the $$ and put it to work somewhere else. What's the difference if you take a loss thinking you can recoup it quicker elsewhere? I don't disagree that Strauch and company made fatal blunders, but I stand by my opinion that Pascoe did a phenomenal job! Yeah, perhaps my perspective is biased, and I'm sorry for those holding shares from the $30's (and above), but really, for as long as this stock was stuck below $10, there was more than ample opportunity to "load up" or average down which would have netted a 100% gain over the past year. Not bad in my book "pal"! lj
