No, I wasn’t asking…I couldn’t agree with you more. They have not gained one iota of respect from me for this. Like you, of course, I’m glad they changed the cover. But they haven’t changed their pathetic behavior one bit. You know, I’ve made plenty of mistakes in my life. Owning them and learning from them is what allows me to look in the mirror.

Well-said. They are such cowards! if you’re gonna do it, then go all the way. Don’t half-ass it. The reason they’re half-assing it is because they knew they were wrong.
