just off the phone with the company

David Burton has just returned my call and was fairly forthcoming with info. He said the company has the assay samples and the lab is working overtime to have the results ready ASAP. He said it would be a matter of days, not weeks. The reply to the speeding ticket as the company having no knowledge for the reason for the price rise, was because no results are in yet, and so technically the company can not give a reason for the rise, especially if the company is not aware of any of the workers leaking info. He did say, however, that he was optimistic.
