<<Granted, there is a boatload of buck$ in
mineral extraction technology>>

Is that buck$ profit, or bucks down a rat hole?

My opinion is that SOLV appears to have sold the only thing that had a chance of making money anytime soon. The minerals stuff is very speculative. Good luck if you're planning on holding out for that. (I wish I hadn't covered my short position ...)

Bigtoe, Thats what it seems like. There may be one last "ace in the hole" with the minerals technology- a possible deal of some sort being hidden, but I am certainly not holding my breath on it. I have no idea and I am done speculating on this one. All I know is that the minerals where what JR and co. were going for originally way back when before they derailed. Somehow it feels like we are at ground zero again. Not sure if we are headed to zero right now either. Rob
