CJR...I agree. Seems like there must be way more going on behind the scenes than we are aware of. Vz. knows they have KRY by the short hairs from a negotiating standpoint. The clock is ticking on potential litigation (we never got a signed legal document to the contrary) against a backdrop of limited financial resources and very tight credit conditions. If Vz. is "not nice" we may have to choose between taking the legal route or possibly accepting "an offer we can't refuse". I'm not saying that we're being set up for a stink bid from Rusoro...just saying that we better hope that Vz. "is nice". I mean....Vz. wouldn't exploit any weakness in KRY's negotiating position for their own benefit now would they? Would they? Nooo. I'm sure they are very nice.
