Informer,
I read your post as somewhat sarcastic of my statements. In essence I agree and wish that the coffers not be exposed to risk, especially in this economy. On the other hand Rick G. has stated his intentions so we may as well suck it up and hope for the best.
I know this, as soon as I see the replacements named I'll be seaching the web to see if their past has been as productive as his. I think we'll be pleased with his picks, he has great reputation to protect.
