The sad thing is that many will be expecting quick results (esp. the shareholders), when a matter like training is a long-term commitment and process with, fortunately, big payouts in the end.

Your brain is always working (I nominate The Human Fund...Money for People). You know how when you go to Disneyland and you feel the urge to peek through the fence and check out the new ride that will open in the summer? I think of this SB closing kinda like that. Many people are curious what this will bring and want to “peek” inside. Maybe offering some sort of donation would allow for one more peek through the fence and possibly more important, it would give the customers a chance to feel they added to the transformation. We'll see if this brings any lasting changes. Brett,
