I am glad that he has asked that we remain calm while the board does its job. I don't think it is a secret that I am a fan of Paul's. He has been a good friend for many years, and no matter what he does, or votes, he remains a good friend. That goes for my other friends who may have voted a way that I do not agree with. The people on this board work hard, give up a great deal, and suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune. We owe them the chance to do what they think is right, and the support to stand behind them. Even if we don't agree, we should respect the hard work they continue to do. And, certainly we should not change our friends even if they do not do what we would rather they do. I have not changed my opinion of any board member because of their vote. And, we should remember how important it is to be allowed to call a person a friend and respect that permission.
