Yeah, sure places go out of business. However, AS is not showing any signs of going out of business. The place is still making money. Just because people are unhappy with things, which they have the right to be, doesn’t equate to liquidation. Surly, with all your previous experience at failed companies, you can tell the difference between a faultering company and people venting their frustrations.
