No one is around to question the company, and Sunday is an off day. That is often what is done when people do not want play back on a very bad decision......... The idea often does not work...playback just comes later.

Why do they call it the..." Saturday Night Massacre." when Nixon fired those investigating him..He did it, but playback was oh so delicious, Nixon resigned months later. If he did not resign, it was clear he was going to be impeached.
