Many of us liked the dividends and in no small part are here because of them.  I don't think management should reverse course on the dividend so quickly.  Seems neurotic to me to say we are going to do the dividend on a twice yearly basis and then within the same year not follow through.  Disappointing if true.   There is plenty of dough in the coffers and will be plenty more going forward with settlemnts or win in court for M&A or R&D.  Keep the dividends!
