Conference Question For Timbogold, Pos & Co, page-2

I think most people are with you Money Bags. The long holders were kept more informed by the previous CEO with regular anns, whereas, GV does not follow in this regard, but I guess has to keep negotiations under wraps until complete. He cannot create Anns out of nothing, but news on negotiations would be much appreciated by all at the conference call. The conflict of "expecting someone to sign up this Summer" and "taking six to eighteen months" from two sources sends to different messages. Which one is right?
