> we are scared of what Jim Cramer will say about us instead of the everyday impact on the people who use our products

Reminds me of a thing I read by someone that worked Broadway for at that time 40 years. He said the best thing for Broadway would be to take the NYT art critics out for a ride in the country. Because no one was making plays for the regulars or the tourists, they were making plays for the critics. Same complaints have been made about the wine industry.

It's a great anecdote, but it's hard for me to read that and not immediately think "then explain Andrew Lloyd Webber, please."
Guy made a comment about that, said they've been running cats for the last 1 years because they are afraid to try anything new. If they put on a new play and the critics don't give it a top rating no one comes and they lose money.
Opps meant 12 years. Currently Cats has been running for 38 years.
