Sleeper, All of the above and more, be patient and enjoy the intermission while you can, there are multiple acts yet to follow. Ptask PS: And did you assume there would be only one intermission in this saga?

Sleeper- so far its a dramatic farcicomedy. Tragedy comes later but possibly sooner than we expect. Let's see, we were discussing the first three Acts during the First Intermission, so let's review more current activities: ___________________________ Intermission I Act 4: NAP internals Scene 1.- NAP announces-- - 04 May - 1999 financials - 24 May - New mineralization at Roby Zone - 29 May - 1st Quarter 2000 results Scene 2.- Stage Center.- The Bankers have entered onstage front and center, and are Quibbling, no, Arguing, amongst themselves. The four-letter word Hegg is audible. Minty, a Geologist and other Advisors are deep in an animated Philosophical Discussion of Synonyms -- for the concentration, purity, weakness or reduction of intensity of a Thing resulting in diminished per unit value -- thus to avoid using the D-word. Where is Kaiser? Stage Left.- There is Kaiser just visible off left stage in the wing. He is standing with hand to brow, deep in thought of Scylla, Charybdis and Conversion - muttering over and over, "Damned if I do, Damned if I don't." Stage Right.- No obvious action, but Sheridan remains occluded* in the Wings and there are various Rumours of his Health, Status, Wealth and Activities. Orchestra Pit.- The audience is momentarily distracted by a short, female Streaker carrying high a Placard, "Value at 10.00." Outside a man unable to pay the Price of Admission walks back and forth in front of the Palladium Theatre carrying a large Red Flag, crying out the Theme embroidered large upon it: "Just Saying So, Makes it So." (He does not appear to be Russian. Possibly a Dane?) ____________________________ Pardon me, Sleeper, I've appeared once again in the middle of all this excitement to have misplaced my Playbill. I can't recollect whether Act 5 or Intermission II now follows. Perhaps it doesn't matter, as I've noticed that even during the performance updated Playbills with new targets and dates are passed out. Just as well since I recollect seeing one of those unhappy, five-letter Greek words ("Chaos" or "Abyss" or some such) somewhere farther down in the text of the last version. I don't recollect that the Old English word Hegg was mentioned, and now that I think about it I don't think any form of hedging has been mentioned in the Playbill - yet. Ptask ____ *I had to look this one up: Occluded = "to take up, either on the surface or internally, but without change of properties: Palladium occludes hydrogen" (Harcourt Dictionary).
