The best of a bad world. Dick has steered us into calmer waters with the help of this forum and we the retail share holders. Were it not for us uniting under our young capable leader, on this forum, we would have been granted the keys to the WORST of a bad world.

As Nemis has said, he has been planning on leaving for some time anyway. Had he just retired, there would have been a party and that would have been that, but this crisis gave all of us retail share holders the opportunity to participate in his retirement thus enabling us to show our appreciation to him by "Getting out to vote for him".

It is my opinion that he could not have received a better gift. Every time he looks at his statue appropriately named "HUNTER", he will think of all of us and the mountain we tried to move for him.

This is a sad day for me. I haven't cried for a few years now and am fighting the urge as I type this post.

If, God frobid, this new team does not follow with the integrity of Mr. Nemis, I hope they will change the name of the company so as NOT to twist the knife in the wound.
