i hope this stock tanks today. during the past month, BC had a blood bath laying off the older and most experienced employees. upper management has no clue as to what their people do. entire departments were shut down. others had key people slashed, leaving the company unable to manufacture goods. the director of the department was quoted as saying "we need to get rid of all the (walace) coulter people. they have become too comfortable". the fact is,,,,those people had the most experience. looks like they still couldnt make #s. next Q will be worse. not ony are sales down,,,,they lost the ability to produce products. may upper management RIH
