Bobasaur, I know how you feel. Stunned. I talked to Steve 3 hours ago, and am still wiping away the tears. This hurts on so many, many levels. These aren't just employees, but the heart and soul of a company. I've hugged most of the folks at CuriousLabs, and there isn't a one of them that wouldn't be welcome to drop by my home for a cup of coffee. Good people. Karen and Steve have been the outward faces, the evangelists, the enthusiasts... but each one of the people leaving has contributed something very special to Poser. They worked so hard to bring us a tool so that we could all be more creative. CuriousLabs might have a better chance of surviving if it is leaner... but it won't be the same. I can only hope that Steve and Karen and the others have an opportunity now to express their creativity, too, just for themselves. They have my very best wishes and hopes. Carolly
