I want them to make a clear statement as to their intentions because I
think it is the honorable and ethical thing to do instead of leaving us
to draw conclusions such as you have here. When GM killed Oldsmobile,
people didn't learn about it by going to Oldsmobile dealers and finding
empty buildings. I won't fault MW for ending the development of CW, but
people who have supported them to the tune of thousands of dollars over
the years deserve more respect than to be left to "figure it out," even
if it's not hard to figure out. Lots of people talk about what a great
guy Ron is and how honorable he is. Those things are easy when it's
your job to give people what they want. A truly honorable person does
the honorable thing even when it isn't the easy thing to do.
