Hi Shadow,

After TMex posted that Dennis Yak told him "by end-of-summer", I wanted to get a second opinion so I called Mark. He confirmed that RNTK (at that time) had high hopes the deal would be signed by 9/21. Clearly this a date that in their minds seems reasonable, but they are not Texaco and not in control of when this deal will be signed. So anyway, this is how the end-of-summer got cast in stone.

I'm still surprised that Mark and Dennis would actually specify a particular date as opposed to a time frame. What would make them do it, knowing how mad people would be if it did not come to be ? I don't know. Everyone needs to understand that RNTK's expectations are not a guarantee that it will happen in their anticipated time frame. Invest accordingly.

I also think that lack of recent price movement reflects skepticism from so many false alarms, a nervous investment environment, and the fact that people have been loading up for 4 months or more and do not plan to invest any more. Newbies take a look at the chart and see a stock which has fallen from 3 to 1.

Let's hope that next week gives us a clearer sign.

Regards,
Chris
