Thank you both for your input. What I am gathering is that it was a trust that purchased the shares and not the individual which is legal. I have not read ALL of the posts on this happening, but I have been surprised so far, to find that posters are not giving our new ceo enough credit to know what is legal and what is not. I for one, wish to thank the man for putting his faith in this company as well as his own skills at getting the job done. It said to me that he has enough confidence in his plans as well as the cash balance to step up as we all have--AND, he is doing it with all of the risk involved that we have been complaining about for so long.
