rywnc, Brian Briggs is THE MOST TRANSPARENT AND AVAILABLE C.E.O.' s I have ever known. Greg Taylor responds to my and my colleague's emails oftentimes within minutes, and is often immediately available by phone. If not, he returns your call....That we haven't had a news release for some time is simple and clear: nothing yet is material enough to report. The Hans Black issue, as I have posted here, is not key to the decisions of those negotiating a deal with Tyhee. If I am wrong about that, then I am being lied to by those at Tyhee with whom I have had a solid longterm trusting relationship.....So, if you haven't heard from management, now you might have a better idea why!
