Al, I see Mr. Smith's (Kelmer's) position as CEO of SSTP as a requirement of IC Thomasson to agree to joining the companies (USSE and SSTP). It's sort of, "Yes we're on board but we get to put our man in charge."

Stanton did the same sort of thing when he put David Crow on the USSE BOD. It's sort of, "Sure, I'll finance you but I want my man on the board." Normally Stanton would be on the BOD and probably its chairman, but given his and JR's past relationships, discretion won out.

Nothing against either Mr. Smith or Mr. Crow. USSE is a real winner as a result

alstocks When it comes to human beings you cannot put all CEO's into one basket and say it is a FACT that NONE of them would post on a message boards. Especially about something they feel passionate about and feel Rivera is being attacked without merit. It could happen and apparently has. Not a credibility issue for Rivera from my view. I do tend to agree that Mike will not likely spend much time here supporting his position.
His one post should be sufficent. Whether we believe him of not is not his problem to defend. He gave us important info and I appreciate that. Now it is really up to Rivera to execute. Hope he succeeds for the environments sake as well as all investors.
