Farnam, Don and Mark L-- while I have you here-- Can I ask one more
question for you to address. L3 still has the coal mining assets.
IAT or it has been suggested that L3 may like to sell the coal assets to the construction side (hear me out). This however could create tax problems. What are the chances or possibilites of the
L3- trading out the coal side to the construction side in exchange
for laying all this future cable. Could this be a tax free swap??
I made a simple analogy for my question--but do you guys think this could happen and how beneficial would it be for L3 in the long run. I mean what other competitor has access to a"top notch" construction company like Kiewit-- that could lay cable next to the UNP railroad and keep the costs low or maybe tax deductible???

Thank you in advance for your consideration to my questions.
