The fact is they needed money or bar go bye bye. if you love GD, you will go there. you'd be surprised who really owns many of the companies you support. by the way, rogue employs less than 250 people who somehow manage to produce and operate internationally. sounds like they know business. if you're still too choked upAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-57422520820445429262008-11-18T11:59:00.000-08:002008-11-18T11:59:00.000-08:00The dragon is dead, but it's been on a respirator ...The dragon is dead, but it's been on a respirator for about a year, long before Ed came around. <BR/><BR/>What I'm worried about is what is going to happen to the distillery.

And he's thrown way north of six figures into the biz in recent months to keep it going, which LoLo has not. It's Ed's to sell. <BR/><BR/>I for one think Ed's comments are those of a stand-up guy who's truly trying to do right by people.
