Advalorem, Your last note hit the nail on the head. LU isn't making us any money for the time being. Maybe you're right and the new CFO can singlehandedly turn the company around, but I am not highly confident it works that way. My fingers are crossed.knc

One more point to make: Jobs didnt accept big bucks. What do you think of that? Go back and read the conditions under which he accepted leadership. My original point was the replaceability of the typical executives because they dont do anything unique (like be creative). Thats the difference between a CFO and Steve Jobs. You missed that point, and I guess you will probably miss it again. LU mgmt didn't call me to ask what I thought. They are as interested in my opinions as you are. Good luck making your money.
