I guess there is just no use of of going after Hurd since he is no longer with HP then---too much baggage!lol Oh well, I am kind of excited about the line-up so far. We have some very good people who post here. I too, would vote for Ron in a heart-beat, but he said that he would not want that job. I can understand that since he seems to be a very dedicated family man and busy in his law practice. Perhaps the BoD will actually consider one of these shareholders--cross-my fingers and hope.
