Did you read the memo in question? I'm not trying to be negative. I'm trying to analyze it like a shareholder/industry analyst (and the lawyer who wrote it) would.

So, "brah," I take it that you thought that memo said they'd be placing a widebody order in 2013? Enjoy the view with those Widget colored glasses on.

It's ironic--I guarantee the execs possess absolutely none of the "Widget Punch" sentimentality they're counting on us to believe in. That's why they enjoy huge bonuses--and why we're just tickled pink when we manage to abscond with a few crumbs from their table.
I can't imagine what you could do if you were TRYING to be negative...
