diana, L. Simmons, the Chairman of TBI, is Matt's brother. He owns 32% of the common stock. Both Matt and L.E. have done very well. Jim

Diana, I think you were very smart in buying the TBI end of the deal. TBI seems only to want a deal if they can utterly steal a deal, like they are trying to steal VRC right now. And like they tried to do with NR. I believe this deal will fail, and TBI will pop afterwards. VRC big shareholders will kill this deal, if it is is not amended. I am beginning to agree with Wall Street on these OS "Mergers", they stink. If TBI really wanted to grow their business - buy SESI or NR for cash. No more crazeball stock legerdemain. Time for gamesmanship is past. IMO they won't sneak this one past. VRC ain't that desperate, or are they? Bull
