GPBA, Good to see someone post something here again. Here's my take on the situation (My opinion - please don't hold it against me). Pro - Still most interesting idea using air to drop capital and op costs. Big names investing $ and manpower to resolve lingering process issues. Great PR and IR to date. Wyoming not bad so far. Con - Merger doesn't do much unless I'm missing something - all the hype of an IPO may already be in stock price. Rumors that there is trouble in the lab with catalyst activity causing huge reactors and high capital $. Syntroleum in the hole for future royalty payments that have to be paid back if plants don't go (reason for merger - to protect real estate investments?). Barge mounted Texaco plant estimate 20% higher than expected. Made me nervous sometime back and I bailed at $30. Waiting for good news from the lab and the capital estimator before I get back on the wagon. Read Sasol's web page - its very impressive. JM
