While I agree that this should be a safe space for positive SFOR longs, you do make a good point about deals and it's something I've been trying to understand for a while.

That is, who is negotiating these, non-litigation settlement, deals for the company? As much as I respect Mark Kay and his work, his previous employment at Morgan as a CIO, impressive as it was, provided no opportunities for deal negotiations, Information people are pretty much doing communications. I think.

So, then, I ask myself, who is, and has been, doing the deals?
