<<I think he already signs the 10-K's. I don't think he is an accountant, so about all he's capable of signing is something to the effect that he's not aware of any hanky-panky. Surely nobody expects him to personally watch every transaction that hits the till.>> come income tax time i have to sign-off on my business and tax returns that are executed by my accountant. as you say, mcneally is not an accountant and neither am i but i do hire what i think is a reputable firm and believe in their work. i think someone individual(s) need to be accountable for the reported financial results of a company and ulitimately it must be the top guy the CEO. nobody said that ceo was easy or with outrisk. isn't why they make the big bucks. if he has hired good people with integrity, mcneally should not have to worry about the integrity of the reports. everyone makes mistakes and this could happen in financial reporting but i beileve the SEC is looking for fraud. i do not like the sound of mcneallys tone. rocky.
