RJ- well you got one thing right, McGann belongs in the product lab. To that I add, not the CEO office. I encourage that change. Matter of fact, I thought making BL President was a sign of things to come.
I do challenge your "satisfied" disposition on "things to date "... Its a worthless endeavor for a public company to achieve great things in the lab and in the product marketplace while their market value decreases. That's part of mgt.'s job also and to abdicate that job to the "wind" is really discouraging and dangerous.
One thing a smart man of science instantly recognizes: I am NOT a CEO, I am a scientist. So be that. Leave leading to leaders.
