Sometimes, a company goes down in flames for "no good reason", other times, the writing was on the wall, but ignored, for years.

You do realize that when I speak about Yahoo, some people consider me an 'expert'...however, being the featured commenter on any given blog & five bucks will get you your choice of beverage at Starbucks. Sans the five spot, you'll get bupkis.

Morale of this story: the the peter principle lives on at any given corporate...if you're an idiot, you'll go far. If you have brains, get out while you still can, and SELL your options like they were on FIRE.
