Dony: This is not a challenge to your opinion regarding the BOD, rather my own opinion about what should happen. I hear what you are saying about the BOD; I didn't like the ousting of RN when it happened or how it happened. I have since decided that I have to play the hand that I'm dealt, for the time being.

We have been going through a lot of turmoil in the last year which hasn't helped us much. The FWR matter has created a lot of interest in NOT and I'm not sure thats a bad thing. I know, I know the bid failed and probably the approach wasn't the right one, but mistakes are made....

I'm not sure that more strife is what NOT needs at the moment; I would prefer to step back for a bit, take a breather over the holidays and see what the BOD comes up with. It seems that the FWR vote may take this in another direction, again! I expect the BOD will be very active in that time.
