LR68, you pretty much summarize my sense of things at the moment. It is easy, however, to see where the pessimism comes from and I can't blame those who have a more sour view. I think it comes from what happened with JB. He had built up a reputation and garnered trust, and it is difficult to trust current management given what they did to him. Perception is reality, and the perception they gave us is a big part of the problem, I think.
Hopefully BG knows what he is doing and there is a method to the madness, so to speak. I really would like an explanation, though, as to why the analyzer had to be purchased for $40k when perhaps it could have been rented. Why did we need one at all? Did our previous one belong to JB and was no longer available to us? Depending on the circumstances, of course, they may not be legally able to answer right away.
My thoughts for the day...
