Oldguy, thanks for your support and further clarification of a chief executive's role. I especially enjoyed your reference to the famous quote by the British economist John Maynard Keynes when he boldly answered the question --what does he see for the future--"In the long run", said Keynes,"we'll all be DEAD". A simplistic, but agonizingly true answer.So let us all keep hope alive, not only in this endeavor, but throughout the remaining time we have with our friends and family. Regards,-- Reverend Bill.
