>> well, sears is a plane that no to longer can fly.any gas in the tank, and he's busily selling off the engines. so is it a surprise? in fact, i think it started losing altitude about 12 or 13 years ago when alan lacy became ceo. he also did not have a pilot's license. his board shouldn't have given him the job, and when it turned out he really didn't know what to do with the company, they should have done something about it. instead, they let him turn the company over to eddie lambert. hoor hover what's the best thing to salvage sears and kmart? >> he's selling off whatever assets he can find a buyer for, whether it's companies outright like sears canada or land's end or individual store properties. he's sold a handful of very, very valuable real estate sites and more to come. but at the end of the day, there's a stub that's left that doesn't have any viability, and the strategies that he claims will bring them back to profitability, in my view, just don't have any veracity at all. lori: what would you do at this juncture? >> i think
