The board's silence is normal, you're just too used to this weird 'everything in public on twitter all the time' type of behaviour that emanates from this particular sector.

Do you see the boards of GM and IBM slapfighting on twitter? No. It's a thing some people have taken to doing, and - in my opinion - it's not a good thing. It's incredibly immature.

This 'I'm in the office lol' behaviour is also pretty weird. It's more the sort of thing you'd expect to see on the pro-wrestling circuit than the type of behaviour you'd expect from a CEO.

It makes a big internal breakthrough more and more likely, when they aren't willing to speak publicly

They finally talked to a lawyer?
