I think we are further along or ahead then we know of. As order, I feel Lori does not even have control over the order things happen. One phone call could change everything. We were wondering the same thing when it comes to nondiscloser agreements. What does the company really have to let us know. If a big company is dealing, say just on the Tesoro, would it be when they have made an official offer? By this I mean, banks and lawyers would all be involved. Someone cant just throw a # out there, and we all know once banks and lawyers get involved she takes time. IF we have a company dealing, do they get to see results with out a NR? Say they do, this could be the delay in us not seeing results? When most of us deal on a big thing and on something we reallly want, we want first chance on it. Maybe this is what is happening. Then like I said earlier, if we see a halt, then NR, then new Sp, the bidding war should start. This is when it gets really exciting! IMO
