My opinion

See post 3081. Scott needs to take a lesson from all the other successful Wall Street CEOs - underpromise and over deliver. If he says 10 days it means ten days. For that matter, he should say "within two weeks" if he thinks it will be in ten days. Give the shareholders something to hold onto but then make them happy when you deliver early. I think that is page #2 of the 'How to be a good CEO' manual. On his behalf, he gets good marks from me on most everything else. One other small point. Our guidance has gone from .31-.38 to "over 30 cents" to "30 cents". I appreciate the updates but guidance has slipped a bit. Still under 7 P/E if he delivers...
