Pic,

You're clearly right in your criticism of what has happened. I assume, however, that the lack of information was due primarily to the sensitivity of the negotiations going on behind the scenes. However, it's clear that things have changed, and I assume we will be getting a lot more information about the status of both companies. At that point, everyone can decide whether they will get out, in, or just adjust the size of their investment. There's nothing anyone can do about the past, but those of us still here are now more focused on the future. Last I remember, you still had at least some stake in these companies. Let's hope it works out for all of us.
