They appear to be selling the recipes, so someone will pick them up. It's just sad that the workers not only screwed themselves over by trying to suck more money from them in this economy, they also ran the company out of business. Unions are awful.

A company this big was dealing with several unions. Some agreed to the concessions, but some did not. While I can agree this did ultimately screw them, a solvent company isn't just over head. The managers need to take some of the responsibility as this brand has been around a while, and managers could have moved locations to stop unions from holding them hostage.

I am not pro union I actually think they are outdated and don't cater to the times.

I can understand getting RL busy. We're barely into this tier and to gear up is stupid fast. You already leveled to 90 didn't you?

Renmoo!!! Finally gave up LoU eh? I'm still playing GW2 and loving it! It suits my limited playtime and I am still digging the go-anywhere do-anything style of gameplay.

I don't know if I could go back to WoW. Although a bear tank with half a million hit points sounds alluring, I don't know if it would be enough ;)
