No matter what anyone says on these boards, it is clear and obvious, that we have a strong CEO of high character and will. Not many men would have taken on this herculean task, and with that being said, here we are with CMGO alive and with great prospects. All of this crap was dumped on him within his first month as CEO, yet he has carried on.

Tremendous potential thanks to Glenn Laken, CEO and Co.
