A boss that I really respected (he has since died) told me: "Donny, there are no excuses but there are reasons!"

That may be appropriate regarding our not commenting. There are no acceptable excuses, but there are reasons.

I find that these folks are very encouraging and supportive. There really is no need to be negative or to flame anyone. This is our international 'family' and deserves to be treated as such.
