I am not quite sure how this production slow down this year is going to affect next year's earnings as badly as some analysts are predicting. If mngmt. is being truthful, there is no reason to believe next year will not be stellar. My disappointment in management lies in their failure to inform us about the borrowed equipment. Taking equipment and personell from a plant running at full capacity, and then some, seems like a pretty important little detail which we had a right to know. I am not saying it was the wrong move, but I certainly would have liked to know about it. Not to mention, it would have helped the blow to the stock. Rather than losing credibility, it would have been viewed as taking a little hit now, so we can deliver the big blow (pardon the punn) tomorrow. JMHO. Colby
