RE:RE:RE:RE:Greetings!Hello TraderRC!
All fair questions.
For the length of my term, that's just to line up with some other work I'll be doing elsewhere 6 months from now. This time I'm spending supporting LME all came from Cynthia asking for a hand and I'm happy to do so but this isn't going to be my primary occupation (though I am having fun!).
The reason the USG partnership doesn't have a time marker on it is because it's contingent on an event as opposed to a timeline. USG is a terrific partner to facilitate a number of different types of financial transactions but I don't think anything is written in stone in a calendar. Note that I'm not in on the M&A work Laurion is doing so I know as much as anyone else here on that topic.
Hope that helps,
Steve
