Plus, we have to remember that we are getting second hand information as it is being interpreted by the various sources, so we may all be getting the same message and just interpreting it in different ways. Kind of like that old telephone game.
Barbara was always very sweet -- she just sounded absolutely overwhelmed the last time I spoke with her. It's just a shame that one contract gone bad (if that is what happened, and that is what it sounds like) can have such a negative ripple effect on so many.
