"while Halcyon might have sacrificed sales to consumers concerned about comfort "
-Business Week Online
My point exactly. All I have to do is say a BP's are not comfortable, and everyone flips out. I guess there is more than one definition of comfort, DIR and everyone else's.

In all fairness, Halcyon is a great business concept and builds high quality products, but having the head of GUE in charge of a company that makes gear to DIR specs, is an obvious conflict of interest. Somewhere else I heard that the owner of 5th D, is a high muckety-muck in GUE. The temptation to spec something that no one else does, and then put it into production, must be great.
AS for JJ, I wish I was as smart as he is, that company is worth a bunch now. [/B]
