IF the railway goes through, what are your thoughts on Noront's willingness to actually sit down and talk with KWG and come to a mutually respectful and beneficial business arrangement? What forms might that take? I could envision a large range of options, everything from simply being a guaranteed customer from shipments, to a full-fledged merger of the two entities. However, I don't know that either Frank Smeek or Al Coutts would be willing to consider a merger. Therefore, I'd envision somewhat less monumental developments where both companies remain as standalone entities.

But sometimes my opinion changes from year to year.
