I certainly agree that the latest PR was a bummer and, at the present time reflects badly on the company. However....The company had a responsibility to report the execution of the contract & certain relevant terms (such as due dates for payments). If the documents called for a payment in January, I would expect the PR to say so. If the payment is not made, I would expect another PR indicating so.
So....we're all bummed out again. And, while I don't like it one bit, that's the way it has to be (IMO). So lets lay off all the 'I'm dissapointed' e-mails to Tim so he can concentrate on getting things squared away asap. Having vented, I will say that the e-mails (IMO) could be sent to the IR person. If she gets a lot of them, I'm sure Tim will get the same messages and not have to spend so much time responding in person.
