The seniors decided themselves. Nobody told anybody to do anything. I also don't want make opinions for others but maybe they thought they had a better feeling about going for Steve Sanghi's offer. I can speak for us, we were happy to go either way. Each challenge seemed intriguing. If you had been there, you obviously would not have agreed and we would have taken you head on.
