I agree with what you said about the timing of RG taking over... In my short post I was trying to keep SP out of it... our share price is effected by things we have no control over..(MMP & PTO)... so we have nice little family of companies (some we own some we are invested in)... where we are in the correct sectors... If all of these start hitting we can do VERY VERY nice... but so far RG has been show no go... He has postioned(helped postion) the company but it is about winning the name not being in postion to win....

I do understand your piont... we need earnings (steady) and the share price will take care of itself..
