Ed questioning Scott's judgment is laughable - kind of like Homer Simpson
questioning Einstein (sorry Homer).
Scott had some very good reasons for making this move and he was under no
obligation to announce it to anyone - certainly not here.

How could you respect anyone that worked for CA?
People don't have many choices, these days.
