As Martin mentioned, I've already given the example. I asked a direct question, and the intention within the department regionally was to improve communications, but nothing has happened. Our assumption has to be that superior management quashed that communication. The starting point should have been to establish that rapport and then give us, as industry reps, something to report to our members. In the absence of good information or honest attempts to provide information, people fill in the blanks. Sadly and unfortunately and reprehensibly, really, it manifested itself in a violent act. It's completely unacceptable, but when people don't know what's going on, then unfortunately, they fill in the blanks.
