RE:RE:RE:RE:Press Release I want you to be correct over anyone in here, believe me! But you do need to look at this realistically.
I didn't say it would be a failure, what I said was if the special committee was formed specifically to deal with an offer right at that moment, then there was no need to hire a PR guy because there would have been an announcement due any day. My theory is that the BO is further away than the general consensus on this forum, hence they need a PR guy to keep things a bit calmer and throw us a bone in the meantime.
I would also say that putting $250k down is not a big deal at all because it looks refundable if they do not secure a deal which would mean 0 risk to LME.
