I know this is not going to sit well... as some are reading the forum at the moment with "open wounds" however I think it must be said.
As much as the shareholders have invested in SLI (financially and emotionally) and as much as the company is accountable to the shareholders... you can be absolutely sure in a critical time such as this that Lori and the rest of the executive will not change course from their master plan...and I for one hope they will not bend to the emotions of shareholders.
It is not personal my friends...Lori and the rest of management would never want to cause pain to shareholders...but at the end of the day what matters is the success of the company... which always comes with a little pain along the way.
Just one man's opinion
