The best one was Robert Nardelli,

How about divine intervention? At the Boeing meeting, there were curtains, hanging from tall poles, tall being maybe six feet, on each side of the stage where Shrontz and the other honchos were speaking. While Shrontz was struggling with that question,(I don't recall what the question was) the tension in the room was so think you could cut it with a knife. In the middle of all this, the curtains on the right side of the room fell off the poles. Without a word, well dressed, young, guys, hurried to rerig the curtain.

...he announced the numbers, took no questions, turned on his heels, and smartly left the room.

Typical "JC". I suspect that is what this push is all about, so those delicate flower "JCs" don't need to face questions that they can't control.
