How about trying to make a non-issue an issue. Would that be considered negative posting, and not fact? Unless you can tell the members of this forum, in the appropriate detail, what negative consequences might await Patriot, due to as you put it, hiring a non-existent company, IMO, espeically by constantly bringing it up, you are doing nothing but bashing. Regardless of whether it is a fact. If the fact is irrelevant, which IMO it is at this point, constantly bringing it up and chastising the Audit Committee about it serves no purpose other than to bash.
