So many lessons that translate.
You spoke at length earlier about process efficiency and its impact on cash flow when you were working at Serotta. Fascinating stuff. I was just down in the basement looking at the Saratoga-built Yo Eddy! that I need to get put back together. Which got me thinking - what was the level of integration at the production level while Fat City and Serotta were under the same roof?
Understand that I'm not asking you to air any dirty laundry, and if this is problematic to answer, please don't. It just seems like the arrangement would have caused an additional layer of production complexity that you had not raised in your discussions with Gary.
