We were taken aback by an op-ed written by Bob Kueppers and D.J. Gannon that appeared in the April 2011 issue of Accounting Today ("The Journey to convergence," page 12). We're surprised they continue to tout vague generalities about the benefits of international standards and hopelessly cling to optimistic (but naive) interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission's announcements.
