Ted, your thinking on why Lebby left, either forced out or he "retired", is backwards as well. Your narrative always leads with the negative viewpoint of why things happened.
Clearly there was some type of disagreement, FOR WHATEVER UNKNOWN reason. He didn't announce his retirement in advance. That tells the story.
So you believe one of the leading scientist was discharged prior to the technology not being ready? Makes absolutely no sense. He was booted/left because deals under his leadership were lacking.
I don't know, nor do you, how far along they are with the design. I'm convinced the MATERIAL(perk) is 100 percent ready. The value is there and it'll take someone or some other partner to get all the moving parts in place. I SUSPECT Lebby also knew the underlying value of Perk even though getting it implemented quickly is taking longer. He wasn't willing to take some low ball deals because of his strong conviction Perk is key. That's why we heard ubiquitous over and over.
I think he was a bit stubborn and it cost him and us.
You'll pick my THOUGHTS apart in your typical negative manner as I also have no inside knowledge.
The science is too complicated for me and I don't have the desire to study the issue. You also have little to probably no formal education in the subject matter and throw numbers out that are probably IA generated.
It took me until now to digest what happened. Scared the hell out of me and not happy with the S. P. but the board hopefully acted in our best interests.
Looking forward to a solid PR coming. Lebby's worst trait was not communicating effectively with us
Good luck Ted
