18. The day I screwed up

19. It’s fine that we’re not going to Crested Butte (although

    I think there is a value in there that is seriously being overlooked, IMHO)… but Carl, it would have been nice if you would have discussed it with your team first. I don’t even feel like you have a good enough idea of where we’re at with the projects… how could you? We all have a lot invested in the success of this project… I haven’t cared for a project this much in my entire career. I think we all want it be a massive success… we just can’t do that with only half the information and no input on any of the decisions. I’m not trying to get pissy, but I feel like we’re all working as some democratic team, yet we have zero idea what you and Doug are even talking about most of the time.
