"we ‘have’ a company because of Glyn, if no alternative partners signed up in the next six to twelve months ‘ we’ will still have a company thanks to Glyn."

The cone of silence argument has been used on the OBJ forum for 10 years. It's possible that the cone of silence hides bad details rather than good details.
