- Here we go again, Gary. As I said before, what's wrong with building
- up expectations and lining ducks up in a row? You're the one going pie
- in the sky about AT's future plans. How about lining up a retailer NOW
- for those machines which will be coming out soon? Or would you rather
- have that production run sitting in warehouses waiting for SMeG's small
- dealer lineup to get space and available cash to purchase them?
-
- Jesus, it takes a goddamn sledgehammer to get the concept of "future
- planning" through your head, doesn't it, Peake?
