[Outofworkbum]

Update on identifiable minority shareholders who have declared their holdings.  8.5 million.  Drafting a press release and could use some help here.

Hey Bum,Appreciate what you're saying.  Call Chris though.  He can only help you here and I'd like his take.  OK  I already stated my share count and I'd certainly be open to developing a share syndicate to block everything on a formal basis and fight Severstal if they approach things from a 'hurt the minorities' interest.
