I'm not really back. I guess I'm just taking a much more reserved stance. I'm not foolish enough to believe that I can influence the tone of this or any other board, but when the interaction falls to certain levels, I see no value in participating.

I enjoy discussing the business (as much as we see of it, anyway). There are some smart people who post here, and we all have varying backgrounds. We don't have to agree with each other, but I believe we should at least demonstrate respect for each other. I'll use FG as an example ('cuz he appears to have thick skin). I don't agree with FGs "Open Letter" concept of telling SEVU or McBride and Assoc how to write PR, although I understand his message and assume that the relevant parties read this board and will recognize the message as a post from a sample of the shareholders. I respect that.

Many people have the resources and expertise to research and report on many aspects of the business which relate to SEVU. I found some of BillBranum's data on FG rules to be very enlightening (as may SEVU). I also truly appreciate the efforts of BillBr, Seahag, and others who are coordinating questions for the Open House. If not for that, I would attend the Open House, but since it's a long trip for me (Seattle), I'm going to wait for the Shareholders Meeting.

I have also been watching RB. It's still a circus over there, and (IMO) the people who regularly post over there don't appear to do their homework or have much understanding of the business world. I think they just like having someone to talk to.
