I don't think any of it is a matter of "legality". All the parties to a settlement can decide on the actual date of the settlement in a manner beneficial to all. If that means Alliancense/TPL confer with PTSC to determine the best timing of a deal, so be it. Doing so might help PTSC "smooth" revenue flows during these somewhat erratic and 'adolescent' quarters. And once we get humming with 10-12 deals per quarter, much of it will no longer matter.

Best to all, and thanks BaN for your 'find' today.

It's 5:30 in Ohio (and Michigan still sucks) -- whooops, that is bound to set off the insensitivity meter.
